"Alex was an exceptionally skilled champion for the rule of law and the importance of fair and honest elections," O'Brien added, describing Talcott.

His legacy will undoubtedly inspire future generations within the RNLA and the greater legal community."

The Attorney General's office said in the statement that an autopsy had been conducted on Talcott on Sunday.

"New Hampshire Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Jennie V. Duval has determined that the cause of Mr. Talcott's death was a stab wound to the neck," the statement said. "The manner of death is homicide."

Homicide was defined as being "the killing of one person by another," according to the statement.

Both parties involved in the incident were reportedly identified, and the Attorney General's office did not identify a threat to the public, according to the statement.

The investigation is ongoing.
