Scott Brown Tries to Make Carpetbagging History

Only two years after losing his U.S. Senate seat in Massachusetts to Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D), former Republican Sen. Scott Brown (R) is running for the same job in New Hampshire against Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D). If Brown wins, he will be making carpetbagging history. Only two senators have represented more than one state. The last person to pull it off was Democrat James Shields in 1879, who was elected as senator from Missouri after previously representing Illinois and Minnesota. Brown moved his primary residence to New Hampshire last year.
