There are contested races in this Tuesday's primary at the top of the Granite State ballot, but only on the Republican side of the ticket.
Democratic incumbents such as governor Maggie Hassan; U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen; and U.S. Representative Carol Shea-Porter are unopposed in the primary. Ironically, all of their Republican challengers are men.
