Fact-check: “Maura Sullivan race as US House”
Verdict: True (92% confidence)
Maura Sullivan has run for a U.S. House seat twice: she lost the Democratic primary for New Hampshire's 1st Congressional District to Chris Pappas in September 2018, and she was an active candidate in the 2026 Democratic primary for the same seat, with that primary scheduled for September 8, 2026 — after the August 30, 2026 reference date. Multiple primary sources — FEC filings, NHPR, NBC Boston, C-SPAN, and Ballotpedia — confirm both candidacies.
