MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — Former President Bill Clinton is coming to New Hampshire to campaign for Democratic gubernatorial candidate Maggie Hassan.

Hassan’s campaign said Saturday that Clinton will appear at a rally Wednesday at the Radisson Hotel in Nashua.

The former state Senate majority leader said she’s honored to receive Clinton’s endorsement.

Hassan is one three Democratic candidates running in September’s primary for governor. Democratic Gov. John Lynch is not seeking a fifth, two-year term.

In the primary, Hassan is facing former state Sen. Jackie Cilley and Bill Kennedy, a firefighter and retired Air Force officer.
