Congratulations are in order … to Sun-King Sununu and Chris Pappas. Notwithstanding all his braggadocio, the Sun-King is actually extremely insecure. He was scared you-know-what-less that the new Congressional maps might lead to Chris Pappas deciding he had a better chance at Governor than reelection in CD-1.
So Sun-King prevented the legislature from drawing new maps that would have made CD-1 more Republican. That allowed Sununu’s Supreme Court (a majority of the justices were nominated by the Sun-King) to hire a STANFORD LAW PROFESSOR who … SURPRISE, SURPRISE, SURPRISE … just proposed a map that is much, much, much more favorable to Pappas than one from a Republican legislature and a Republican (which Sun-King Sununu is not) Governor.
So congratulations to Liddle Chris on his reelection.
