Wednesday and Thursday were good days for legislative Republicans. They showed unified strength in sustaining the Governor’s many vetoes, sustaining 53 out of 55 so far this year.

[Update] NHGOP Releases Video on Sununu’s Sustained Vetoes- All I do is Win! Is it Offensive?

The Attorney General, as mentioned here, has assumed the “Control, Direction, and Supervision of Criminal Law Enforcement Functions in Hillsborough County.” The letter from AG MacDonald to Michael Conlon highlights exactly how much of a failure Michael Conlon has been as the County Attorney.

You Don’t Vote for the President – And Probably Never Will

August 22, 2019

Yesterday, the US 10th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled on a suit over whether states have the authority to force their electors to vote for the winner of the popular vote.

At least in Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Kansas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico, where the 10th Circuit has jurisdiction. But, did this actually change how we vote for President? Not really.

Governor Sununu Forces Legislature to ‘Do Your Job’ on Redistricting

August 10, 2019 Steve MacDonald

August 9, 2019 Steve MacDonald

August 2, 2019July 31, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Democrats in New Hampshire’s neighboring states (mostly Massachusetts and Vermont) like to vote in the Granite State? They are encouraged to do that. Invited. Because here, their vote can make a difference. And actual residents get to pay the price for that.

The New Hampshire Democrat’s Budget Includes a Retroactive Tax Hike

June 26, 2019 Steve MacDonald
