Mystery man John Adams wins New Hampshire GOP nomination
In Concord NH an anonymous candidate named John Adams won the Republican nomination for the 1st District in a Bicentennial year upset. Voters backed Adams despite no campaigning, with 11 963 votes to Edward Hewson’s 7 895 and other unknowns scoring smaller totals.
