I met Rogers Jonson on a handful of occasions. In my limited experience, he was always a great guy who listened intently. He was thoughtful and always polite. So it is sad to hear the news that he has passed away at the age of 62.

A Little Red State with a Big Blue Crown – Prologue
NH in 2020 has made a significant shift to the right with the Republican Party now holding not only the Governor’s office but also wielding control of the Executive Council, State Senate, and the State House.

And You Are Proud of That?
I took a few breaks from watching Team-Biden stealing the election Tuesday night to check #nhpolitics on Twitter.

Mother May I go to a full remote session without violating Part II, Article 20 of the NH Constitution (achieving a quorum). Problem? Plenty of them.
