Councilor Wheeler:
I am emailing you to go on record that I want you to reject the judge appointment of Belknap County Attorney Andrew Livernois. It is clearly another political favor of the Damn Emperor, just like many others, the most recent one being DJ Bettencourt.
We all know it’s an election year, and His Excellency is retiring from the Corner Office; therefore, his days are numbered, and “favors,” as disgusting as they are anyway, are soon going to be irrelevant.
I was pleased to have the fortune of seeing Barbara Comtois, one of a handful of incumbent Belknap reps, in the dining room while you were there and on the same morning as the nomination. And I was also pleased to observe you two talking and expect that you’ll be hearing from her peers in the near future. However, something interesting occurred the next day regarding RTK. That horrible bill, supported by Judge Lynn, HB 1002, passed the House, but praise God, it’s going to have another roll call vote next time the House meets. What does that mean to you?
I’ll explain.
If this “RTK records tax” makes it across the finish line, it will create a bigger barrier to accessing the truth that’s supposed to be available to the public. You represent Nashua and certainly know what a hostile city it is in many regards, RTK being one of them, but Nashua does not have a monopoly on “RTK hostility.” All you have to do to learn more is look at Gunstock. There are certainly many people who can speak more intelligently than I regarding what a mountain of buried secrets it is, but Andrew Livernois is NO friend of RTK.
Imagine, for a moment, lots of Belknap folks having to resort to litigation, especially if HB 1002 is successful and Livernois is there playing goalie. He’s potentially a “Judge Temple 2.0,” and Belknappers deserve better. Furthermore, Nashua owes them a solid. We have no representation in the House and, therefore, must depend on them to elect good reps (like Barbara Comtois, Nikki McCarter, and Paul Terry) to offset our 27 swamp rats.
I am unfortunately ill-prepared to answer detailed questions about Attorney Livernois’s role as a Gunstock accomplice because I’m not a lawyer. But former Rep Norm Silber is! I want you to make yourself available to him, Mr. Sylvia, and Dr. Strang for a discussion about the potential harm to Gunstock, Belknap, and perhaps all of NH that could happen in the court of Judge Livernois.
Please vote NO and encourage your peers to do the same.
