The Governor pulled his nominee for State Librarian, and the reporting is clear about who moved first. Wheeler raised the objection.
Sununu told reporters he withdrew the nomination after he heard not only from Executive Councilor David Wheeler, R-Milford, of his concern but other councilors as well.

He told reporters the nominee was too woke, and that the State Librarian has no business reaching into decisions that belong to local libraries and the towns that pay for them.
Confirmations are half of what the Executive Council does and the half almost nobody watches. Wheeler treats every one as a chance to keep left-wing politics out of New Hampshire government. Two weeks earlier he had also voted against adding $1,938,875 to the state’s marketing contract with GYK Antler. Nominations and money get the same scrutiny from him.
