Night Cap: Voter’s Regrets?
Let me first say that this statement is about the incompetent finance committee chair and my former opponent, Alderman Dowd, and not me. I want to get that disclaimer on record before I get accused of being a sore loser. Last November, I lost to him 830-1003 with 182 undervotes.
Night Cap: Haley’s Democrat Supporters Won’t Vote for Her in the General Election
My good friends, Don Bolduc and Rep. Bob Healey, recently got back-to-back coverage in the Union Leader simply because they espoused their ho-hum rhetoric against President Trump in favor of their friend Nikki Haley. Hey, I get it.

An Open Letter to Councilor Wheeler
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.

With Regard To Putting a Price on Public Access to Public Records
Be it noted that Deputy AG Geoffrey Ward deleted the files of 28+ police officer files relating to the Laurie List.

Musical Chairs
Remember how fun it was in grade school playing the game of musical chairs? You’d circle around the chairs to music and when the music stopped everyone had to grab a chair. But, they were one short. Out went the kid who didn’t get the seat. It was a frantic, fun game that honed kids’ … Read more
Handling Trolls at the Polls
I’ve decided to put into words a “cyber journal entry,” for lack of better phrasing. This comes less than 24 hours after holding a Trump sign outside a school in the suburbs.
