As the Democrats ramp up for the Presidential primary, we hear progressively louder demands for open borders, socialized health care, and increasingly absurd standards of political correctness. Our current US Senators claim to be centrists but have consistently voted in support of a radical agenda. New Hampshire can do better. This Tuesday, Bill O’Brien is … Read more
Well, it would put one thing to rest – New Hampshire as the First in The Nation (“FITN”) Primary State. Second, as I have said for years, the FITN primary really distorts the political “marketplace” as the locals start falling all agog over themselves with all of the Bright and Shiny Objects waltzing into NY. … Read more
A few months ago GraniteGrok as a website, endorsed Steve Negron for Congress. Today, I’d like to endorse Steve personally.
There is no other Republican running in the primary for Congressional District 2 in New Hampshire (NH CD-2) more qualified to replace Democrat Ann Kuster than Steve Negron.
“Granite Grok.com” has NOT endorsed a candidate in New Hampshire Congressional District one (NH CD-1). Both Eddie Edwards and Andy Sanborn have been interviewed (at great length) by members of our team, but neither candidate has been endorsed. Please also understand that our individual authors are free to write for or against any candidate they … Read more

Former State Senator Dick Ferdinando & Marilyn Huston Endorse Steve Negron for Congress Nashua, NH – Former State Senator Dick Ferdinando & Marilyn Huston endorsed Steve Negron for Congress today in New Hampshire’s 2nd Congressional District.
“President Trump needs conservative outsiders such as Steve Negron to serve in Congress. This country needs a candidate with Steve’s background in national security, immigration reform, military service, and small business experience to lead the President’s agenda at this critical juncture. I endorse Steve for the same mission I endorsed President Trump – to reform Washington’s culture in keeping our country safe and truly Make America Great Again.”
I was chatting with New Hampshire Conservative Majority Project Chairman (NHCMP) Kevin McHugh earlier today when he told me that the NHCMP is endorsing Jane Cormier in the Republican Primary for Executive Council District 4.
NHCMP is a grassroots coalition working to elect principled Republicans who stand for low taxes, individual liberty, free markets, limited government, and most importantly, the U.S. and NH constitutions.
By Kevin McHugh
NH Conservative Majority Project (NHCMP) proudly endorses Eddie Edwards in the CD-1 GOP Primary. Eddie is a principled conservative and strong supporter of individual liberty, low taxes, fiscal responsibility and standing up for our 2nd Amendment rights. As a Navy veteran, police chief, and successful small business owner, Eddie has the knowledge and real-world experience it takes to make things happen and get results. The hard-working taxpayers of NH’s CD-1 will be well represented with Eddie Edwards as their next Congressman.

Every election in NH is really a race in three parts: 1) for political activists to serve on campaigns, endorsements, and donors, 2) to win the primary election, and 3) to win the general election. That first race is nearing its end. We at the ‘Grok have been studying the candidates, listening to their words, and reading their campaign materials to evaluate where they stand in OUR eyes.
A few years ago, I got a call out of the blue one evening from a person that I did not know, was very polite (especially to this ordinary schlub blogger), seemed to know me fairly well, and wanted to talk about my thoughts about politics in general. And wanted to know if he were … Read more
The town of Merrimack (Hillsborough District 21) has been my home for 17 years. And this year Merrimack (still) has eight house seats but ten Republican candidates running to fill them. As a Conservative I feel compelled to select the eight who I feel will best represent the New Hampshire Republican Platform and the interest of my town and State as I view them.
So I’m no different than the rest of you, except that I may be paying a little bit more attention (maybe), I vote principle before party–though I will not bite off my own nose to spite my face, and my soap-box…well, it is just a little bit big bigger than that of the average voter.
So these are my personal endorsements for Hills-21, though I can assure you that my A-Team picks are all GranitGrok Worthy.
Yesterday, Steve wrote about William Jefferson Clinton coming to Nashua to endorse Maggie Hassan. In it, he showed Andrew Hemingway’s 4RG video of the endorsement, where Clinton messed up and used Jackie Cilley’s last name (the other candidate!). There is simply no good explanation or excuse for this.
Democrats around the state are now trumpeting the magnificence of Hassan and her campaign, what with a former President swinging (driving) by to heap praise on their candidate. You’ve gotta feel bad for these people, grinning through a grimace, being real troopers, in spite of this embarrassing display of Presidential pretension and blunder. All that effort and they can only show still photos of the event – no audio – no video!
Well, let me make it hurt some more.
There are fundamental problems with the way the New Hampshire government conducts its business, from the glut of agencies, the redundancy, inefficiency that has grown over the years, and the inability to coordinate information that was built into the system, not out of forethought or malice, but simply because that is how disparate empires grow … Read more
Manchester, NH – Two-term U.S. Sen. Gordon Humphrey today announced his support of Ovide Lamontagne for Governor. Sen. Humphrey represented New Hampshire in the U.S. Senate from 1979 to 1990. He declined to run for reelection in 1990, fulfilling a campaign promise to limit himself to two terms. He voted against the federal budget all … Read more
According to this release, Senator Gordon Humphrey has fully endorsed Ovide Lamontagne for US Senate. Senator Humphrey is the only person to serve in the US Senate, then return to NH and serve as a State Senator. It is also notable that he voted against the Federal Budget every time, during his US Senate service, … Read more
