I do not profess to know the finer details of New Hampshire election law, though more perhaps than the husband of the former State Senator who sat on the election law committee, Elliot Lasky. Mr. Bette Lasky was caught stealing political signs, a clear violation of election law. (I guess Bette didn’t bring that work home with her.)

High Speed Fail
New Hampshire has received a grant of 2.2 million dollars from Transportation Secretary Ray La Hood to study a high speed rail corridor up to Concord. Lahood, referred to by Geroge Will as the ‘Secretary of Behavior Modification" hates cars–an interesting choice for the head of the Department of Transportation. He is also the guy who wants to ban cell phones from cars, hands free, hand held integrated, you name it.
"Left wing loon" would be a polite description of Mr. La Hood and his Grant for New Hampshire just makes him look loonier.
A View From The Progressive Wilderness?
Seems to me Ray should be accusing the voters of overreach, and that’s probably what he’s doing. But a 75% Majority of State government sends a message about someones agenda, even when that message is delivered to democrats. It’s, what’s the word, a referendum.
National Organization for Marriage Quotes The Grok
Brian Brown, the President of the National Organization for Marriage (NOM), just released his post election update and Granite Grok is both mentioned and quoted. Gov. John Lynch narrowly survived our "Lynch Lied" campaign, but thanks to the huge veto-proof majorities in the new New Hampshire senate and house, he will be the lamest of … Read more
Looking For Closure?
I thought you might want to know. Cynthia Dokmo, the RINO Write-in candidate from Amherst who chose to ignore the will of her primary voters came in dead last. Out of 15 candidates (7 GOP, 7 DEMO, plus Dokmo) Cynthia collected 2012 votes. That’s less than half (43%) of the number needed to make the cut.
But her endorsement seems to have carried some weight. Dokmo endorsed Democrat Shannon Chandley for the NH House, and Shannon made first loser, failing to make the grade by a paltry 741 votes. All the other DEM’s fell in between, as the Republicans not only swept the district they denied Dokmo twice.
There is however room for some speculation, and a correction perhaps to my previous estimation that Dokmo could skim off enough votes from a real Republican to allow a Democrat (Chandley as it turns out) to sneak in.
Feds Play The Lynch Shell Game With Themselves
Taking a page from the John Lynch Playbook, the Federal Reserve is planning to buy 500 billion in treasury bonds. This is the Federal Government taking money from it’s right pocket, putting it in its’ left pocket, then putting it back in the right pocket, and claiming to have 500 billion more to spend.
The Bonfire Of The Misogynists
I’m still awaiting the blistering criticism due Governor Lynch from Democrat spokesperson Harrell Kirstein, for accepting praise from the misogynist in Chief, the impeached serial sex offender and perjurer, former president William Jefferson Clinton, who came to New Hampshire to campaign for floundering democrats and the little governor that could. President Bubba, the benefactor of a countless number of Bimbo eruptions, demonstrates to us the true value that democrats place on marriage–none, and to women in general, not in the fabricated terms Kirstein would attribute to others, but in their actual context.
Clinton continues to be coveted very likely because of his indiscretions, but more prominently for being the most visible evidence that the democrat party is a cabal of liars because he was impeached for lying–and lying about his casual abuse of women to boot.
So I guess Governor Lynch endorses this kind of behavior then. He certainly emulates it. (The lying) Which means he must also be defending his parties other abuses of women, seeing as we’ve heard nothing denouncing it, from his office, his state party, or anyone in it for that matter.
Election Day Open Thread
Today’s the big day. I voted around 8:30 AM. Polling traffic was not steady–no lines to get the ballot but most of the voting booths were occupied. Tell us what’s happening at your polling place, give a shout out, guess the final spread on your candidates victory…whatever. It’s the November 2nd, 2010 Election day open … Read more
Stephen Surging
Late polling shows John Stephen closing the gap to the point that the race is now a toss up. That means every vote counts. Get out there and vote for John Stephen. He is the only candidate who can win and advance our shared goals for liberty and a return to smaller government.
Shea-Porter’s Anti-Millitary Stand
Blue Hampshire has a nice post about how Carol Seiu-Porter, the daughter of a WWII vet, married to a former serviceman, stands up for veterans and the military. (I have synopsized.)
Well if that is true, then the minute she gets back to DC for her lame duck session I expect her to initiate an investigation into why states run by democrats have such a hard time getting absentee ballots out to military personnel in the field, and getting them back and counted in time to matter. This is a problem that has gone on for years without any notice or action by the democrats or their so-called military supporters.
OFA – Sanctions Vote Stealing….Because NH Law Allows It.
Note to all Republican’s elected to the the next New Hampshire Legislature. You need to tighten up voter registration laws. You must get rid of same day registration. You need to limit voting privileges to actual residents. There must be a requirement to demonstrate proof of ID and residency to vote. And you must enforce … Read more
Ray Buckley And His Extremist Friends…
Paid for by The New Hampshire Democratic State Committee and Ray Buckley, Chair, is an ad in the New Hampshire Sunday News. Don’t feel bad if you missed it. It’s an 1/8th of a page affair that tries to scare people. They, the democrats, have to resort to this because of the frightening reality that is their actual agenda, which people are preparing to reject in the mid terms.
The ad is directed at Jim Forsythe, candidate for State Senate. It claims that Jim will Slash the minimum wage, take away women’s rights, eliminate social security, eliminate medicare and shut down public education, as if the democrats have not already corrupted these ideas or doomed these failed institutions already, and that a State Senator from New Hampshire, any state Senator, could actually do any of these things anyway.
Each of the five attacks come with a foot note directing you to one of two internet resources, the Republican Liberty Caucus Statement of Principles, or an interview in Fosters Daily Democrat.
Notable Quote – Russell Kirk
If men are discharged of reverence for ancient usage, they will treat this world, almost certainly, as if it were their private property, to be consumed for their sensual gratification; thus they will destroy in their lust for enjoyment the property of future generations, of their own contemporaries, and indeed their very own capital.
Notable Quote – Edmund Burke
One of the first and most leading principles on which the commonwealth and its laws are consecrated, is lest the temporary possessors and life renters in it, unmindful of what they have received from their ancestors, or of what is due to their posterity, should act as if they were the entire masters; that they … Read more
NHDP Policy – “Can’t Win On Issues? Cheat!”
Maggie Hassan must be in danger, why else spend all that money on fake signs with the Republican opponents name on it linking them to higher taxes. That’s what’s happening in State Senate District 23. The Democrats, practically overnight, have peppered the district with "counterfeit signs" that look like the candidates signs, but with some … Read more
Can I Get You Some Vote Fraud With That Today?
Dan McGuire got an earful from William Gardner, the New Hampshire Secretary of State, just the other day. According to Bill the Obama government has been pushing hard against the states. The Bureaucracy is trying to tell everyone how to run their voting operations. Why should we be surprised by that? And it looks like … Read more
Lynch-Marched To Who Knows Where
NH Employment Services has released its October report for the most recent New Hampshire jobs data and it’s not good for John Lynch. The state continues to lose its human capital. The granite state shed another 360 workers in August to parts unknown as the post ‘end of the recession’ exodus of our civilian workforce rose to 16,550. So from July 2009 to Aug 2010, 16,550 people gave up looking for work in John Lynch’s New Hampshire, ‘Lynch-Marched’ right out of our local job market. That doesn’t happen in a healthy pro job-growth environment. If John Lynch and the democrats were really doing their political ‘best’ the Civilian work force would be rising as people felt compelled to come here to look for work because more business and industry though of New Hampshire as a business friendly environment. But it’s not. It’s hostile.
More Gay Lobby Lunch Money For Lynch
Lynch has only raised 1.12 Million for the general election with his own loans. Take the loans out and he only has 350,000.00 from sources other than his own checkbook. Thirty five percent of whats left is from one special interest; gay marriage activists from Tim Gill’s Political Out Giving, the group he secretly slithered off to, to give a luncheon speech back in May.
Chandley/Dokmo Take Over The Amherst Citizen
If you read the Amherst citizens October 26th edition you won’t be wondering how people feel about Cynthia Dokmo’s Write-In campaign or whether Shannon Chandley is a good candidate. Of the twenty-seven (27) letters to the editor in this week’s edition, seventeen (17) mention either Dokmo or Chandley favorably, with at least one mentioning both. … Read more
