Harry Bean
The “Missing” July 31, 2022 Special Gunstock Area Commission Meeting
Actually, not so much missing but so much going on with the GAC and the Delegation it’s been hard to keep up. But to be expected – Wood and Lambert have adopted an Obama tactic that we all first saw at the start of Obama’s first term – too much happening over so many areas … Read more
So Belknap County Attorney Andrew Livernois Lied (By Omission) To Give Cover for Last Week’s Illegal County Delegation Meeting.
My impression of Andrew Livernois’s answer: EVERYTHING in the Law is a “grey area” (so go do what you want). And now the Delegation is getting sued over it. Like I said here, NH State Rep Harry Bean broke the Law after being manipulated into whipping himself into a frenzy to be seen as getting … Read more
Of Oaths and Loyalty – The Dearth of Fidelity to Both in Politics; Belknap County Delegation as Example
So, WHO called the Delegation meeting yesterday? Was it legally done? Nope. And IMHO, County Attorney Andrew Livernois gave cover in a rambling Letter as so many had contacted him to see if the Delegation was operating legally. I have an email thread with him that I will be posting later. Hint: On quoting RSA … Read more
So, look at who the Belknap County Delegation Chuckleheads picked for the new GAC Commissioner
That would be Denise Conroy. The entire Delegation, until November, is Republican. Good Conservative ones. They put her onto the Gunstock Area Commission last night. From the Daily Sun:
My choices for tomorrow?
We get a ton of requests “Who should I vote for”; not just for GraniteGrok but pretty much all of the Groksters. We can’t answer all questions and we give out very few recommendations (this cycle, only two: Steve Negron (NH CD-2) and Karen Testerman (NH Governor). My choices, if it matters? None of these … Read more
Endorsement (Personal) for NH House – Glen Aldrich, Harry Bean, Norm Silber, Mike Sylvia
While not an official GraniteGrok endorsement, all GraniteGrok writers have the authority to personally endorse people for elected office they feel best to fill that particular position. I am taking advantage of that now for the NH House of Representatives. The first three are in my District: Belknap County 2 (Gilford/Meredith). Glenn, Harry, and Mike … Read more
“I am very humbled voters decided to send me to Concord”
A thank you: To The Daily Sun, Meredith and Gilford voters: To those of you who know me, you already know that I am a man of few words. To all of you who saw fit to trust me to represent you in Concord, I thank you dearly and promise to study each and every … Read more
Dorothy Piquado – not NH Values
To the Daily Sun,
I’m a little late on this, given that Dorothy Piquado wrote about “The Frugal Four” and Gunstock back in late and early September. I take exception to her premises in both those Letters. The Frugal Four (now Three: Harry Bean, Jon Mackie, and Glen Aldrich) – those Republicans that promised Frugality and to which our NH Constitution explicitly calls out as a necessary ‘Social Virtues Inculcated’ (Article 38):
A frequent recurrence to the fundamental principles of the constitution, and a constant adherence to justice, moderation, temperance, industry, frugality, and all the social virtues, are indispensably necessary to preserve the blessings of liberty and good government; the people ought, therefore, to have a particular regard to all those principles in the choice of their officers and representatives, and they have a right to require of their lawgivers and magistrates, an exact and constant observance of them, in the formation and execution of the laws necessary for the good administration of government.
Apparently, this Democrat candidate for the NH House has never considered this as a necessary and, indeed, requirement of our lawmakers! She merely tosses it off with a throwaway line followed immediately thereafter with the infamous “BUT!” as in “I understand how important it is to be cautious with public funds. However, refusing to invest…”. Alright, she used the more highbrow version of “BUT! – the infamous “However” – so I stand corrected on wording.
The intent is clear – she picks on emotional issues in order to raise your taxes; you know, the anti “Mom and apple pie”. “Only government can handle this” is her message on this and everything else – her priorities but with your money. Sure, you could aid her by voluntarily sending her money but that’s not enough – she demands it as we see with her own words. After all, she was all distraught over the idea of Gunstock being made a private entity (Ask yourself – is owning a ski area a “proper role of government”? I think not as they have too many other things to get right first). And for the “horribilist” idea that a private operator might later close the area, well, there’s a rather simple solution to that – band together voluntarily with others and purchase it yourselves. No, this is not a trite answer I’m offering – but it is to those that only wish to work with other peoples’ money and not their own.
Which is what she wants to do in Concord, and her three joined-at-your-bank-account Democrat accomplices, if their campaign signs are to be believed.

Endorsement – Harry Bean for NH House from Meredith / Gilford
A personal endorsement for Harry Bean for NH House from Gilford / Meredith:
To the Daily Sun,
This Letter is written in support of Harry Bean for the NH House of Representatives to represent the Belknap District 2 residents of Gilford and NH. I served with Harry last year on the Gilford Budget Committee and had many talks about how he sees our town, our State, and our Nation. A quiet man, whose family’s roots in Gilford span back to the 1800s, this veteran is dedicated to this town and to the Principles to which he swore his oath. He understands well the age old issue in politics of needs versus wants having been a long time entrepreneur – he knows how those decisions have affected both his family and those families that his business serves. He knows that “faux” compassion shown by his Democrat opponents, their insistence that “we must invest more” is simply that – just a smooth, silky voiced way to take money away from regular work-a-day families that may be struggling to put food on the table simply so that they can spend it on their “more proper” priorities than what those families would otherwise do.
Common sense – he is that to his core.
Harry Bean – Candidate for NH House in Belknap District 2 (Gilford / Meredith)
To The Daily Sun,
The campaign signs and the mailings of the Democrat candidates for state rep (Gilford/Meredith) speak about “compassion” for county funding. I guess that they are unaware that their Republican counterparts this year overfunded the county by approximately one million dollars. These Democrats are beating their chests about their “compassion” by campaigning to spend even more for public schools, addiction recovery and health care.
What they won’t do is to be honest that your bank account exists to be an open-ended check to go fund their “compassions.” What they don’t seem to have is any real compassion for the fixed and low-income taxpayers who will be footing the taxes for their higher spending. But the Democrats don’t care about them — they only want more for government.
ICYMI – Harry Bean: candidate for NH State House, Belknap County District 2 (Gilford-Meredith)
My name is Harry H. Bean and I live at 234 Saltmarsh Pond Road in Gilford, NH. I am running to be your NH State Rep from Belknap County District 2 (Gilford and Meredith).
Why am I running? One reason is that about a dozen current or past State Reps who have known me for quite some time asked me to after my time on the Gilford Budget Committee. At that point I gave it real consideration and decided that I can make a difference after working inside government and having to deal with government.
Issues that concern me:
Harry Bean: “I am proud to announce my candidacy in Belknap County District 2”
I am proud to announce my candidacy for state rep in District 2, Gilford and Meredith. I am the third of five generations of Beans named Harry. My family has lived at the same location on Saltmarsh Pond Rd. since 1842.
I have been married to Priscilla for almost 47 years and have three grown children, eight grandchildren and two great grandchildren. We also have two cats and a great dane. Together Priscilla and I have enjoyed traveling together over 150,000 miles on our Harley Ultra Classic over the last 10 years.
