USA - New Hampshire. Effort to override Governor Sununu's veto of a bill repealing death penalty fell two votes shorts.

An effort to override Governor Chris Sununu's veto of a bill repealing New Hampshire's death penalty fell two votes shorts in the state Senate. The vote of 14-10 favoring override was identical to the senate's vote earlier in the term to abolish the state's death penalty, SB 593. The bill passed the Senate 14-10 in March and the House 223-116 in April, but was vetoed by Gov. Chris Sununu. The Senate will need a 2/3 majority vote to override the veto and send the bill to the House.
