Lisa Dimartino wants to portray herself as a moderate politician, but as I have been saying, Democrats are going to be taking advantage of the utter chaos that the Democrat Political Action Committee, Citizens for Belknap (CoB), was causing.
Their strategist, Brian Beihl, politically maneuvered the Republicans on the Gunstock Area Commission to turn against each other. Doug Lambert and Jade Wood supported that end game by turning on their Republican colleagues with an engineered “emergency” with the cooperation of the Gunstock Sr Management by having them quit.
That had the Delegation’s moderate Republicans shaking fearing they wouldn’t get re-elected.
This simmering dissension within the Belknap Delegation, with the assistance of the “Tim Lang Gang” (that is also aligned with that Democrat PAC), pulled off a coup causing issues within the Belknap County Republican Committee by attacking GraniteGrok (thanks, Gregg Hough!).
Lisa DiMartino is a hard Left Democrat that wants to take advantage of the manmade chaos created by Citizens for Belknap and (and I have no other words to describe them) Democrat-affirming Republicans. After all, if they are helping this PAC achieve its end, even if unwittingly (even after being TOLD what they were doing), even if they were just using it to feed their own political ambitions. what else am I to call them?
Here’s her LtE to the Daily Sun – reformatted a bit:
It’s time for a change on the county delegation
I’m Lisa DiMartino from Gilford, and I’m running for state representative for Belknap 6, Gilford, Gilmanton and Laconia Ward 2.
Our family has lived in Gilford for 25 years, and our two children attended Gilford schools from elementary through high school. We are fortunate to have established roots in the community and made many friends throughout the years. I know many of you from working at the Gilford Public Library, and Lakes Region Community Services. I look forward to meeting many more of you while I’m out in the community introducing myself and listening to your concerns.
From 2012 to 2014, I was honored to serve as a state representative for Gilford and Meredith, and served on the Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs Committee. I decided to run again, because I have a sincere interest in public service, and want to help enhance the health, safety and well-being of our citizens.
Let’s face it, these are challenging times with problems that affect us all regardless of political affiliation. The economy, inflation, health care, and affordable housing, just to name a few. I’ve been a disability rights and public health advocate for many years and currently serve on the New Hampshire Medical Care Advisory Committee. I’ve also served on numerous other nonpartisan state commissions, boards and nonprofits. If elected, I will be a dedicated, engaged and responsive advocate for our community.
And note the CoB tag team bit: the use of “extremists” which is just Democrat speak for “anyone that disagrees with us” just like Biden’s speech this past Thursday where the only good Republicans are those that already agree with him (you know, like all of the Republicans that our re-born RINO Reports have been spotlighting):
Over the past decade, extremists on our county delegation have eroded essential county and state services, jeopardized our nursing home, and brought Gunstock to the brink of disaster; it’s time for change. It’s time to bring more diverse, reasonable and responsible voices to the table. It’s time for healing, collaboration and making government work efficiently and effectively again.
Please consider voting for me on Nov. 8.

Lisa DiMartino
Benign sounding, right? She’s anything BUT “diverse, reasonable and responsible” but the stage has been set for her and others As I say all the time, don’t just listen to politician’s words, research their actions. So, how DID she support parents and small businesses?
She voted to keep your kids locked into the teachers union run “public” schools:
voted FOR repealing education choice and scholarships for low-income families ( 2013 HB370 )
She voted to keep your Cost of Living higher than it could have been:
voted AGAINST lowering business taxes ( 2014 HB1475 )
voted AGAINST reducing business taxes ( 2013 HB354, 2013 HB434 )
voted AGAINST reducing the meals tax ( 2014 HB1597 )
voted AGAINST reducing tobacco taxes ( 2013 HB335 )
voted AGAINST requiring a 3/5 vote to raise taxes ( 2013 CACR1 )
voted FOR higher boat registration fees ( 2014 HB292 )
voted FOR higher energy rates ( 2013 SB148 )
voted FOR higher gas taxes ( 2014 SB367, 2013 HB617, 2013 HB617 )
voted FOR higher tobacco taxes ( 2013 HB659 )
Supporting your Constitutional Rights? Not so much – at all!
voted AGAINST the right to keep and bear arms ( 2014 HB1438, 2013 HB388, 2013 HB451 )
voted FOR banning free speech near abortion clinics ( 2014 SB319 )
voted FOR weakening the right of self-defense ( 2013 HB135 )
And for making it easier for outsiders to vote in NH elections:
voted FOR making it easier for non-residents to vote in NH ( 2013 HB119 )
voted FOR removing a deterrent to voter fraud ( 2013 HB595 )
Her LtE sounds so nice and middle of the road. Her actions say otherwise. Actions speak louder than words and these votes from her prior term in the NH House show that she wants a tighter Government grip over your children, that Government should always have more of your money and is pleased to have it keep taking your money, infringing on your Free Speech, and making sure that YOU have less of a say in your Government by supporting outsiders influence NH politics and policies.
