Manchester, NH – Today, John Stephen claims victory in the republican primary for Executive Council District 4, beating five competitors in a crowded race. Executive Council District 4 is an open seat, after incumbent Councilor Ted Gatsas announced his retirement last spring. John Stephen will face Democrat Jim O’Connell in the November 5th general election. 

John Stephen released the following statement:

“I am thankful to the people of Executive Council District 4 for choosing me as their Republican nominee. I have called New Hampshire home my entire life, and I am excited to continue my efforts to grow the New Hampshire advantage and ensure it remains the state I chose to raise my family in. It is increasingly important that we have a voice in Concord to check the tax and spend liberals that want to waste our hard-earned dollars on inefficient government programs and increased regulations. I have full faith in the Republican ticket and am excited to continue the fight in November.”
