Nashua’s assessing office underwent significant changes between 2019 and 2021. These changes occurred when the Mayor, aware of the problems, failed to keep the lid on a dysfunctional office operating in disarray.

Ranked Choice Voting Could Elect a Republican to Congress From Maine
Maine is one of the dysfunctional states that uses ranked-choice voting, but that may be about to change. The incumbent Congressional Democrat in District Two didn’t win outright. The Secretary of State—the same one that tried to kick Trump off the ballot—says Jared Golden failed to get over 50% of the vote, and Ranked-Choice Voting … Read more

Dems Ran on Abortion in NH and Lost Bigly
Democrats and their PACs spent a lot of money on Television in the Granite State. The message? Fear MAGA Republicans in the New Hampshire legislature and vote Democrat to protect Abortion rights.

DID TRUMP REALLY LOSE NH..?
THERE IS ANOTHER EXPLANATION At first glance, it appears that Donald Trump lost NH by approximately 22,000 votes, give or take, considering the official numbers have not been counted or released.

What Will They Do With It?
New Hampshire Republicans are on the cusp of majorities they’ve not had since 2011. The State Senate looks like a solid 16-8. Results on the NH House are still a work in progress, but there’s potential for, at the very least, a much more comfortable majority (40-50 seats). With Republican Kelly Ayotte securing the governor’s … Read more
NH Businesses Pay Larger Share of State Revenue
Businesses not paying their fair share. Shrinking state revenues. A tax burden shifted from businesses to property tax payers.

A Troubling Observation at the Polls
I have not meticulously journaled such things, but I have a reliable memory most of the time. I used to be one of those “get there around 5:30 am and wait in the car with the heat on until other voters start showing up” people. In the pre-covid word, I usually got out of my … Read more
