My thoughts as well. Does he have an heir apparent ready to inherit the throne? Perhaps his nephew John Sununu III?
That's just how things work in the Monarchy of New Hampshire. The House of Sununu shall continue to rein in perpetuity, after the symbolic formality of an "election", unless perhaps another one of NH's royal families, like the House of Gregg, or the House of Bass, wish to contest the throne at this time.
Non-royals like Craig Benson won't last long if they don't know their place!
Yea, but Craig Benson has a nicer beach house on Jenness than Gregg does about a mile north in Rye.
So, theres that.
Craig Benson was the best Governor that NH may have ever had in modern memory.
