State Rep. Sharon Carson (R-Londonderry) is running for the State Senate seat being vacated by Bob Clegg (R-Hudson).
Carson made a formal announcement on February 14th and recently formed a political action committee titled, "Friends of Sharon Carson."
The current budget crisis will be a vocal point of Carson's campaign.
"I'm very concerned how New Hampshire will weather this crisis," Carson said. "Tough decisions are not being made. We need people to stand-up and say ‘stop, no more."
