Aug. 29, 2012: Senator Kelly Ayotte addresses the second session of the
Republican National Convention in Tampa, Florida.ReutersWARREN, N.H. A
woman whose mother was killed in last year's school shooting in Newtown,
Conn., confronted Sen. Kelly Ayotte Tuesday during the senator's first public
appearance in New Hampshire since voting against gun control legislation.About
150 people attended the town hall meeting, where Ayotte defended her vote
against a bill that would have required criminal and mental health background
checks for people buying guns online or at gun shows.After the vote
two weeks ago, the New Hampshire Republican, a former prosecutor, expressed
concern that expanded background checks could harm the rights of gun owners."I'm
just wondering why the burden of my mother being gunned down in
the halls of her elementary school isn't as important," WMUR-TV reported
Erica Lafferty asking.Lafferty's mother, Dawn Hochsprung, was the principal
of Sandy Hook Elementary School, where 20 pupils and six educators were
slain in December. She died after lunging at the gunman to try
to stop him from firing.Ayotte said she was sorry for what Lafferty
has been through."And I think that ultimately when we look at what
happened in Sandy Hook we should have a fuller discussion to make
sure that doesn't happen again," she said.Ayotte said she hoped to find
some common ground but that she didn't think the enhanced background checks
that she vot
on.The Democratic primary pits U.S. Rep. Edward Markey, who has
staked out more liberal positions, against fellow Rep. Stephen Lynch, a
former ironworker who has tried to appeal to the party's working- and
middle-class base.Lynch, 58, has had to defend his decision to vote against
President Obama's 2010 health care law, while Markey, who won his first
elected office while in law school, has fended off efforts to portray
him as a Washington insider.Markey, 66, is the better-funded of the two
Democratic candidates, having raised $4.8 million through the end of the
last reporting period, compared with $1.5 million for Lynch.Markey has also
benefited from outside spending. Of the more than $2.2 million spent by
outside groups, nearly 84 percent went to Markey, an Associated Press review
of Federal Election Commission reports found.In the town of Wayland in his
congressional district, voters trickled in to polling places.Holly Zaitchik,
a 66-year-old retired Boston University professor, said she voted for Markey
because he's "he's done a terrific job of being there when anything
important happens" in Washington.Zaitchik also thought the Marathon bombings
might discourage turnout among voters still coping with the aftermath."There
are a lot of people who are still down and not wanting
to participate in things," she said. "It's disheartening."The GOP primary
race is pitting three candidates: former U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts
