This is just an fyi to the parents in Bedford. Now that it looks like your school is becoming a mental health facility for your children, you need to be aware of federal law.

A Post-Mortem on the Bedford Special Election

September 18, 2021 Ed Mosca

It was NOT supposed to turn out like this. The Party out of power is supposed to win special elections. BUT as Adam Trump-Voters-Are-White-Supremacists Sexton noted:

Bedford Democrats Admit (in writing) How Their Party Has Been Stealing NH Elections for Years

August 18, 2019August 18, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Bedford New Hampshire Democrats just destroyed years of left-wing Granite State vote suppression narratives. They sent a letter to Bedford High School Students heading off to college, encouraging them to register to vote. That’s fine, but what followed is damning.

Has Bedford High’s New Principal Crossed a Red Line?

July 19, 2019July 18, 2019 Skip

Perhaps, maybe, for a good reason, but Bob Jozokos certainly sounds like he’s crossing a line: who is the employee and who is the employer? Who gets to make the decisions? It just seems yet another example of how the Educational-Industrial complex keeps letting the mask slip just that much further – that the kids … Read more

January 18, 2025March 14, 2019 Steve MacDonald

In an act of blatant discrimination, a Bedford New Hampshire resident smeared a recently elected member to the School Board. Claudia Barrett took to Facebook to express her displeasure over “a man” wearing (trigger warning!) a MAGA Hat.

Bedford – Bill Greiner Goes After Local Family Man for Objecting to His Plans

September 28, 2018September 25, 2018 Steve MacDonald

Bill Greiner runs Bedford, New Hampshire. Just ask him. Or, perhaps you can ask the people he bankrolls for public office not that they’ll ever admit it.

Bill’s got a lot of money and this appears to mean more to Bill than just being successful. It means he can push people around. Correction. It means that he thinks he can push people around and that he’s been successful doing that. Why else send an email to the employer of a resident to try and shut him up?

Why You Should Vote for Dan Hynes Over Terry Wolf in Senate District 09

September 27, 2018September 8, 2018 Ann Marie Banfield

People have asked me why I support Dan Hynes for Senate over Terry Wolf– especially since I respect and like Terry very much.

Terry has always been cordial to me, and I appreciate that in a public servant. She served for several years on the Bedford School Board and has served as Bedford’s State Representative. She has made many decisions and voted enough for me to know that her political views do not line up with what I believed was best for Bedford residents or myself.
