I’ve now had several confirmations from a number of people that the Belknap County Republican Committee is now directly aligned with the results desired for the 2024 Primary/General elections by the Democrat founded, funded, and led Political Action Committee now known as “Citizens for Belknap”. Sidenote: I wonder if those Republicans laying out a … Read more

Part 3 – Attention NH GOP Chair Chris Ager: NH GOP E-Board Member Thad Riley Endorses a Democrat over a Republican – The Slander Edition, Thad?
Well, well, it seems that Thad Riley isn’t enjoying the attention we have given him as this NH GOP Executive Board member (Assistant Secretary) since he decided that being a “Republican Role Model” isn’t part of the job description. Or that he can do what he wants given the “So what, what are they going … Read more
Notable Quote – Steve Mac Donald on Principles vs Party

Quick Thought – Ding! Ding! Ding! Commenter Allen Was Right! GraniteGrok Authors Were Not Credentialed For the NH GOP Annual Meeting and Trump’s Speech.
As soon as I had put up Maya Harvey’s press release that Trump was going to be speaking at the NH GOP Annual Meeting where new officers are chosen by the new NH GOP State Committee Members, I put in a request for 5 Groksters to be credentialed. That post was here: “Breaking News – … Read more
