TUFTONBORO — Two Carroll County House District 7 candidates — Democrat Bobbi Boudman and Republican Dale Fincher, both of Wolfeboro — are facing off in a race marked by an unusual sideshow: dueling AI-generated cartoons targeting both candidates.

The special election is March 10 for the legislative seat that was vacated by Glenn Cordelli (R-Tuftonboro). The winner will hold it until fall, when he or she will have to run for re-election. District 7 covers Tuftonboro, Wolfeboro and Ossipee.
