NASHUA – A special election to fill a House seat in Nashua’s Ward 4 vacated by state Rep.-elect Stacie Laughton may have a familiar ring to it. Laughton said Thursday that she plans to run in the District 31 race to replace herself.
“After giving it quite a bit of thought since my resignation, and the amount of supporters that I have that have encouraged me to do something and not give up, I decided that if we do have a filing, I’m going to run,” Laughton said.
On Wednesday, Gov. John Lynch and the Executive Council unanimously approved a precept for a special election to fill the seat, according to Executive Councilor David Wheeler, R-Milford, who represents Nashua, among other communities.
The filing period for the seat opens Monday, Christmas Eve, and runs through Friday, Dec.
