Volinsky concedes race, throws support behind Feltes

State Sen. Dan Feltes on Wednesday received the endorsement of his Democrat primary opponents Executive Councilor Andru Volinsky after Feltes' narrow victory on Tuesday.

With more than 88% of precincts reporting, Feltes held a slim but seemingly insurmountable lead 51-49%.

In a speech to supporters Feltes declared victory late on Tuesday.

Feltes, of Concord, will now face Gov. Chris Sununu in the Nov. 3 general election. Sununu, a Newfields resident in his second term in office, eased by primary opponent Karen Testerman of Franklin.
