Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage: * Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive. * Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible. * Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.[1] * Tossup ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage. Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.[2][3][4] Race ratings: New Hampshire gubernatorial election, 2022 Race tracker| Race ratings | April 5, 2022| March 29, 2022| March 22, 2022| March 15, 2022 The Cook Political Report| Solid Republican| Solid Republican| Solid Republican| Solid Republican Inside Elections with Nathan L.
