I commend AG John Formella for being the first AG to recognize the horrors and speedy effort to set up a fund to pay the victims of abuse in the centers. However, I also have to say that the proposed fund is effectively lipstick on a pig.
Bill Gardner
Dear Attorney General John Formella – It Is beyond Time for a Serious Investigation into What Is Going on in New Hampshire.
Dear Attorney General John Formella,
As a result of the recent news regarding Harmony Montgomery and Elijah Lewis; the report from the Office of Child Advocate regarding the abuse of children under State Care;
Manchin Just Can’t Quit Build Back Broke Mountain
Build Back Broke negotiations are back on again because Joe Manchin is a Democrat and supports the Democrat Agenda. Also, the Secretary of State of New Hampshire, Bill Gardner, is retiring.
Secure the Recount: Bill Gardner Has No Specific Statutory Authority to Keep the Windham Ballots
Windham Should immediately request the original ballots from Gardner who has them – with no specific statutory authority to KEEP them.
What The Heck Happened In Windham’s November Election? – Part 2
After a methodical manual recount of the Windham State Rep. paper ballots by the NH Secretary of State’s (SOS) office, it was discovered the reported number of votes for every Republican candidate on election night was short by nearly 300 votes, and Democrat candidate Kristi St. Laurent tallied 99 more votes than actually cast.
Now We Know Why Democrat Colin Van Ostern Ran So Hard to Replace Bill Gardner as NH Sec. of State in 2018
William Gardner has been the New Hampshire Secretary of State (SoS) forever. Well, a long time. And everyone was fine with that (even this year), so why not in 2018? Left-winger Colin Van Ostern raised a ton of cash to challenge Gardner for the gig, and now we know why. The 2020 Election Steal.
NHGOP Committeeman Chris Ager Requests Verification Hand-Count of NH Ballots
New Hampshire GOP Committeeman Chris Ager has asked the Secretary of State’s office to hold a paper ballot hand recount of three polling places in the State. These would be compared to the reported data from election night to (potentially) mitigate concerns about election integrity (or inflame them).
So Kids, What Did We Learn From Organization Day at the NH House (12/02/20)?
We learned that having Organization Day for the NH Legislature is non-negotiable. Holding Organization Day is required by our NH State Constitution. The General Court meets to organize itself on the first Wednesday of December in each even numbered year. On Organization Day all members present are sworn in by the Governor, in the presence … Read more
Janice “so” Rottenberg
While perusing the list of 2020 campaign staff Senator Elizabeth Warren hired to help her satisfy her ego and, thankfully, tank Commie Bernie, I found a familiar name: Janice “So” Rottenburg. Our old pal from a “mobile domicile” in Nashua, circa 2012. Here is her politicking history: State Director Janice Rottenberg (reported on Warren’s team … Read more

This yesterday from Ray Buckley’s numero-uno go-to-guy in the local “press” … WMUR’s Johnny D as in Johnny DISHONEST (aka #FatLazyAndBiased).
Bill Gardner: Hey! Legislators! Leave Those Laws Alone!
A little Pink Floyd the Wall vibe working here as Secretary of State Bill Gardner testified before a State Senate Committee. The short version is this. Leave the election laws alone.
Bill Gardner Should Release the names of the 5,313 Non-Residents Who Voted Same-Day in Nov 2018
A county prosecutor in Florida just caught an illegal voter. The news articles about it serve as an example of how the press sells the story of the person involved and voter fraud in general. There is a pattern. Here is the headline from a local paper. “Prosecutor: Woman, 71, Used Fake Citizenship Papers To … Read more
NH Democrats Just Received a Dose of Reality From the NH State Supreme Court!
NH Democrats, long advocates for hiding election materials from the public, just received a dose of reality from the NH State Supreme Court! “We conclude that the (New Hampshire voter) database is exempt from disclosure by statute, and we, therefore, vacate the trial court’s order,” states the unanimous order of the five justices.” Aw, poor … Read more
603 Alliance Statement on NH Legislatures Re-Election of Secretary of State Bill Gardner
The 603 Alliance would like to thank New Hampshire Republicans for leading the charge to stop deep-pocketed out-of-state progressive influence peddlers from buying local Democrat votes and the office of the Secretary of State.

Five NH Governors Endorse Bill Gardner for Sec. of State – Look at Who is Missing
Who among New Hampshire’s past governors is conspicuously absent from a Union Leader ‘Your Turn’ editorial in today’s paper endorsing Bill Gardner for Secretary of State? Jeanne Shaheen and Maggie Hassan. It could be the nature of their current office that prevents them from adding their names to the list. They are sitting US Senators. It … Read more
NH Secretary of State – Dems are proving that if you cross them, they will destroy you.
“It’s not the people who vote that count, it’s the people who count the votes.”
-Joseph Stalin (apocryphally)
December fifth is another election here in NH but to one in which none of us “regular” people get to cast a vote: the important Secretary of State. Important office – it is responsible for not only the business side of the State (company formations, reporting forms, and the like) as well as the election side (thus, the quote above). In addition, it has been Bill Gardner that has ensured that the NH First In The Nation Primary has stayed exactly that. However, it is that middle part, about elections, that is of most concern here at this time. However, this is an election that is the sole prerogative of our State Legislators – both the NH House Representatives and the NH State Senators. They, and they alone, vote on the candidates. This year, for the first time in a long time, there is a rival to Bill Gardner – a craven, self-serving Democrat Colin Van Ostern who decided that this was prime time to go full Political Opportunist and had $250K to spend campaigning for the office.
No one, except Van Ostern, has faulted Bill Gardner on anything that he has done on the job (in fact, even Ray Buckley, NH Dem Chair, has praised him in the past on his FITN ceaseless work UNTIL he transgressed two Major Pillars of the NH Democrat Party:
Election Quick Thought – NH Secretary of State race
With the Dems now taking over, the next race is who will be the next Secretary of State? Will upstart and attention-seeking (and loud mouth) Colin Van Ostern cash in on this Democrat Socialist wave?
