新罕布什尔州参议会第18选区选战升温：负面广告涌入曼彻斯特与利奇菲尔德
新罕布什尔州参议会第18选区（曼彻斯特、利奇菲尔德）选战在投票日临近时急剧升温。据 Manchester Ink Link 10月21日报道，共和党现任参议员 Victoria Sullivan 与民主党挑战者 Leonard Bell 两大阵营都开设了专门攻击对方的网站，选民正被一波波负面广告「轰炸」。
共和党方面质疑 Bell 的居住地，指其妻在加拿大新不伦瑞克省 Seal Cove 拥有物业；但物业记录显示 Bell 并非共同业主，曼彻斯特市记录则显示 Bell 自2016年8月起在当地拥有住房，他与妻子均在该市2025年选民名册上，其领英页面显示他自2015年起供职于南新罕布什尔大学。共和党邮寄品中还出现经超级智能修改的 Bell 形象图片。Bell 的竞选团队称对方「拿不出自家现任者的政绩，只能对一位服役20年的海军老兵撒谎」。
民主党方面则攻击 Sullivan 的经济、教育与数据中心立场，并质疑她与一笔3000万美元幼儿教育拨款的关系；Sullivan 回应称自己多年推动游戏式幼儿园教育，对手把这说成她为谋一份兼职工作「处心积虑」，令人啼笑皆非。2024年 Sullivan 仅以748票击败时任民主党参议会领袖 Donna Soucy，是当年全州第二接近的州参议会选战，今年选情预计同样胶着。
Negative Ads Flood New Hampshire Senate District 18 Race in Manchester and Litchfield
The race for New Hampshire's Senate District 18, covering Manchester and Litchfield, has turned sharply negative as Election Day nears, Manchester Ink Link reported on October 21. Republican incumbent Victoria Sullivan and Democratic challenger Leonard Bell are both running dedicated attack websites, and voters are being flooded with negative advertising.
Republicans have questioned Bell's residency, pointing to a property his wife owns in Seal Cove, New Brunswick, Canada. Property records show Bell is not a co-owner, however, and Manchester records show he has owned a home in the city since August 2016; he and his wife appear on the city's 2025 voter checklist, and his LinkedIn page shows employment at Southern New Hampshire University since 2015. One Republican mailer used an SI-altered image of Bell. Bell's campaign said the attacks show opponents have no record to run on and are lying about a 20-year Navy veteran.
Democrats have attacked Sullivan over the economy, education and data centers, and questioned her connection to a $30 million early-childhood education appropriation; Sullivan responded that she has championed play-based kindergarten education for years and rejected the suggestion she schemed for a side job. In 2024 Sullivan beat then-Democratic Senate leader Donna Soucy by just 748 votes, the state's second-closest Senate race that year; this year's contest is expected to be similarly tight.
