Traditional Media coverage of political events in New Hampshire is biased. There was a well-attended Second Amendment rally on March 9th (for example) that was not covered by the local press.

The 603 Alliance: Four years ago the 603 Alliance in New Hampshire began plans to hold an Iowa style caucus of NH voters in October of 2015. We were concerned with the large Republican field of candidates that the vote would be so split that a moderate could become the nominee. The 603 Alliance caucus … Read more

I’m Not Here to Support Republicans I’m Here to Support Their Principles
I was at a holiday event the other day. Almost exclusively political activists, Republican party folks. And we were discussing the NHGOP. The state Republican party meeting is almost upon us. So, Republicans in New Hampshire, all snug in their beds, have visions of platform changes dancing in their heads. Rules changes. New leadership. New … Read more
NH House Republican Minority Announces “Leadership” Positions
Republicans limp into the next session of the New Hampshire Legislature in the minority where it will become vital for them to stick together. A strong united front (In the NH House) will do more to peel off the necessary Democrat votes than the bevy of Republican aisle crossers we’ve been plagued with these past few … Read more
Democrat vs GOP heros
Actually, instead of Oprah, Farrell, and Kimmel, it should have been Marx, Gramsci, and the Frankfurt School. (H/T: Powerline)
New Hampshire Ballot: Libertarians Lose Access, Ask “What Next?” (I have the Answer)
The major parties, in the interest of less competition, require New Hampshire Libertarians to obtain at least 4% of the vote in any election to retain access to the ballot. That means being able to register and run as a Libertarian on the printed ballot. In the 2018 election they came up short. The 2018 … Read more

The bi-annual appearance of Representative Anne Kuster (D-Congressional District 2) is happening right now. This is the time, once every couple of years, when Kuster decides to make appearances in the Granite State. Kuster likes to feign she cares about her constituents but the truth is, she doesn’t. She ignores them once she’s re-elected and … Read more
Get Off Your Ass and Vote!
Welcome to the New Hampshire Primary. It’s been a long time coming. We’ve been poked and prodded for our thoughts since before January. We’ve made an endorsement or two and posted op-eds from a number of candidates for races around the state. And today is the day.
Democrats are expected to come out in force to pick their candidates. Republicans are expected to do their nails and wash their hair or binge watch something on Netflix. It’s just a primary, after all.
My suggestion? Get off your ass and vote.

by Dan Hynes – Republican Candidate NN State Senate Dist. 9
My Republican opponent in the Nh State Senate Dist. 9 primary says she is “conservative” who supports limited government and that she is proud of her commitment to cutting taxes, protecting our rights, and keeping New Hampshire free.”

Er, you forgot something, Tom Friel, in your campaign ad!
And that would be…
- Who paid for it?
- I take it that you don’t care about two entire towns in your district? Answer after the jump.
I am no fan of the current campaign laws as I think they are used often to preclude competition.

Republican Primaries are Coming…
The 603 Alliance released the results of an online straw poll yesterday and overall New Hampshire’s Establishment Republicans took a beating.
Before I examine the results individually, please understand that the voting was done via email using a unique password access for each email address in the distribution list. The participants are individuals who signed up to receive email alerts and information from the 603 Alliance before the release of the poll. There was no public announcement that we planned a straw poll, so no individual knew in advance.
Dan Hynes – Republican Candidate for State Senate in District 9
By Dan Hynes,
My name is Dan Hynes, and I am running for State Senate in District 9 covering Bedford, Dublin, Fitzwilliam, Greenfield, Hancock, Jaffrey, Lyndeborough, Mont Vernon, New Boston, Peterborough, Richmond, Sharon, Temple, and Troy. I will be a strong conservative voice in Concord. While a State Representative, I received a score of 100% from the American Conservative Union Foundation.
“I’m so angry that he put us in this situation. I’m in no mood to help him right now.”
That from an ally over NH Gov. Chris Sununu signing HB1319, the latest Bathroom Bill (aka “today I feel like a women even without the lady bits so I’m going into the ladies room”) and HB587 (gotta let gays be gays and no talking them out of it) which is a sop to the gay lobby and is an affront to both the First Amendment and NH’s Constitution in the matter of denying free speech and free conscious. I wrote this at the time:
So Governor Chris Sununu just told his Conservative and Faith-Based base to buzz off. You just told those that brung you to the dance that you’re in love with another. OK, buzz off we shall – like a buzzsaw. You asked we’ll deliver.
So how do I tell him and NH State Rep Mindi Messmer apart, who is running for US Congress with pretty much the same message
Governor Sununu to NH Women: Shut Up and Sit Down
Today, Republican Governor Chris Sununu decided to stand with an out-of-state multi-millionaire rather than New Hampshire women when he signed House Bill 1319 (HB 1319), aka the ‘Gender Identity’ bill. This, despite the fact that an overwhelming majority of Granite Staters asked him to veto the legislation after demanding the legislation be killed in the senate in the first place.
It seems Sununu is more interested in out-of-state special interest groups with a lot of money rather than the ramifications this legislation will have to New Hampshire women. This legislation allows any man who claims to be a woman to be considered as such in public policy; therefore, essentially erasing women.
The ramifications of this legislation to women have been documented over and over and over, everything from domestic abuse shelters to rape centers to homeless women’s shelters to women’s and girls’ sports but pay no attention to the man behind the dress, wimminfolk in the Granite State are just going to have keep their mouths shut.
