We’re Still Waiting For Those Campaign Finance Report Corrections

It has been a week and a day, give or take, since we reported on House leadership’s response to several Election Law (specifically campaign finance) complaints. The Committee to Elect House Republicans (CTEHR) appears numerically challenged, having somehow misplaced over 169,000 dollars between 2022 and 2024. To provide a bit of contrast, I could probably … Read more

Dan McGuire’s Adequate Education Legislation HB283

Dan McGuire’s Bill, that narrows down what an adequate education is in New Hampshire, has everyone in a tizzy. HB283 would reduce the list of subjects that define what an adequate education.

Should Some Online “Testimony” Be Dismissed – Yes!

Not all that long ago, the Dover Dems outrage machine lost its hive mind (for a little bit) over Representative Ladd dismissing about 3500 online testimony oppositions to a Bill before the Education Committee. I saw it, thought he shouldn’t do that, and then ignored whatever happened after. Thankfully, it wasn’t just the Dover Dems; … Read more

Maine Is Trying Desperately To Emulate California

Rather than stand on its own merits and create an identity of its own, Maine is working feverishly to be the California of the East Coast.

Why More Money Doesn’t Equal Better Schools

From local elections to legislative debates to legal challenges, discussion of public education in New Hampshire has been dominated by two persistent myths.  The first is that more spending is the primary means of producing better educational outcomes.  The second is that our educational outcomes are stunted because funding for K-12 public schools has “been slashed,” as … Read more

There is no limit to the amount of money it should waste on progressive friends and family. You cannot spend too much; therefore, … Read more
