GrokTV: Conservative Republican Candidate Home Event: Kevin Leando

“Last but not least, MY favorite House candidate, Kevin Leandro from Gilford” – Barbara Aichinger. Mine too!

I served with him this last year on the Gilford Budget Committe – he was ALWAYS thinking of the taxpayers! No, not in “where’s their wallets” but in protecting taxpayer’s private property (their money) from those that had no problem in spending it all in the name of “It’s for the common good” or “It’s for the Quality of Life”. He showed me an absolute bulldog sense of taking on anyone that he perceived as being in the wrong or spending for the wrong reasons. No, he didn’t always win all of the battles, but like the Prior Marine he is, it was always find the target and move forward!

I can guarantee that he will make his presence known on the floor of the Hall of Representatives – as opposed to the other Gilford candidate (registered Independent and almost always seemingly put his finger to the wind to see which way the political winds were blowing). Principles set, locked and loaded, you will never doubt where he will stand and never doubt his Conservative values. My personal friend, Kevin Leandro:

GrokTV: Conservative Republican Candidate Home Event – Herb Vadney

Last of the three Candidates from Meredith speaking at Barbara Aichinger’s home (and the only non-incumbent of the three) was Herb Vadney. Although he has never been in the NH House, he has been a long time Selectman in Meredith and like the others, believes that while this past session has been a good start to undo the Democrats growing State government into Concord, growing the size of the budget, and growing the resulting Command and Control Leviathan; a return to Live Free or Die vs a Live under Govt and Wither:

Staying with the Conservative Candidates running for the NH House in Belknap 5 (Meredith and Gilford) is Bob Greemore. Yet another small business owner, he too is not happy how the State of NH has drifted from being a biz friendly place – his business is down because a lot of his customers are not in business. Someone who has fought hard as a member of the Belknap County delegation, he has fought to keepsafe taxpayers wallets:

GrokTV: Conservative Republican Candidate Home Event – Colette Worsman

Having heard from Kevin Smith and Josh Youseff, it was time to listen to the Conservatives running for the NH House from Belknap 5 – the Towns of Meredith and Gilford (given that Barbara Aichinger, who had opened her home for this event, lives in Gilford). First up is Colette Worsman, running for her second term in the NH House. A past selectman in Meredith, she has been a tireless worker for conservative values and fiscally frugal budgets. A small biz co-owner, she knows full well the heartache of a meddling govt that believes it is making it easier but only makes it harder for these owners to be able to serve their customers.

Don’t take my word for it, listen to Colette!

Continuing on with Conservative Candidates in Belknap County (NH) that were asked to speak at Barbara Aichinger’s home on Lake Winnipesaukee was Jerry Thibodeau. He is running to oust that ossified dinosaur Ray Burton (an elected Republican official who has no problem in endorsing a Democrat where other Republicans were running). Here, he addresses those assembled:

Last nite, Liberty and Freedom activist Barbara Aichinger and her husband Ed opened their home to a number of Candidates that are Conservative as well as championing legislation and actions that protect and enhance Individual Liberty and Freedom. They are willing to downsize the size and reach of Government, feeling that Government should be the … Read more

Another speaker at Barbara Aichinger’s Conservative Candidate Night in Gilford last night was Josh Youseff. He is running for the NH GOP nomination for the new NH Senate District 7 and we did an interview series with Josh Youseff a while ago (click here for the last in the series; it links backwards to all of the other questions) and have expectations of doing the promised follow up soon.

This is Josh both giving his stump speech and answer questions from the attendees (including your’s truly):

“All Politics is local” – Meet / Greet some good Conservative NH House Candidates from Belknap County 5 and District 7

That quote is from former Democrat Tip O’Neal from Bawston, MA who served many years as the US Speaker of the House. He meant it that national political wars are waged locally. We took it sideways – our local politics are your’s where ever you are, albeit with different names and slightly different issues. That … Read more

One of the things that I am proud about the folks that opine here at GraniteGrok is not just that they spend their free time writing here, not just that when they write but that they write well, but that they all DO and not just write. Each of the authors here get off their butts and go and actively do the politics that they advocate for here on the ‘Grok. I am no different, as I actively engage at my local level. For those of you living in Gilford, I ask that you would please vote for Barbara Aichinger, Stuart Savage, and me when you vote next month in our SB-2 sanctioned secret ballot vote.

The following is the Letter that I have submitted to local media outlets:

My name is Skip Murphy and I am running for re-election for the Gilford Budget Committee. I am also endorsing Barbara Aichinger and Stuart Savage for the BudComm and for the following reasons.
