How often does this happen in YOUR town?

Foster’s Online reports on the use of taxpayer funds to promote voting one way or another. One such case has reached the NH Supreme Court.
Attorney Charles Douglas, who represented the organization in court, said taxpayers should not be funding government-produced newsletters urging support for a particular viewpoint. He said the town spent $1,300 to produce fliers that students took home like "mules." These fliers directed people to a website indicated support for budget items. He said this is not appropriate.
When reviewing the article and the Supremes’ comments, I don’t hold out much hope for the taxpayers. It is rare that the judges in these parts rule against government actions. We’ll have to wait and see.
