It was the same story for local Democrats who wanted to earn their party s nomination for statewide office.  Democratic Del. Steve Heretick of Portsmouth, a three-term incumbent, lost his seat to community activist Nadarius Clark.   More than a million dollars poured into the primary contest, making it one of the most expensive House races.  Clark ran on a progressive platform, with an emphasis on education, health care and criminal justice.
