At yesterday’s executive session of the NH House Judiciary Committee, the Republican-majority committee voted to completely reject a slate of moderate pro-life legislation. These setbacks come despite New Hampshire voters having elected Republican majorities in both the House and Senate.

Fascist Dem Asks, Should Republicans Be Called The ‘Terrorist Right’?
In the interest of toning down the rhetoric, presumably with an eye toward peaceful coexistence or unity, California Congressional Democrat Jackie Speier has a helpful question. Is it “Time to call Republicans the terrorist right?”
Finally, Republicans delivering for Taxpayers! Belknap County delegation delivers on campaign promise
I hope that other elected Republicans see this and know that this is, in part, why they were elected – that Government doesn’t have to keep growing all the time: In November the people of Belknap county elected a 100% Republican delegation. The first harvest has come in early. With citizens facing the difficulties left … Read more
Trump Drops the Idea of Starting a Third Political Party
Donald Trump has apparently dropped the idea of creating a third political party to pressure spineless Republicans. He has agreed to focus on building a bench and taking back congress from within the GOP.
The NH GOP May Not Be to Trying to Disenfranchise Us, But the Results Say Differently
After sitting through the NH GOP Exec Council meeting last night (Mon, Jan 18, 2021), in hopes I would hear a possible solution to the Dec 10th caucus, I am discouraged and am rethinking my involvement with the Republican party in NH.
Is Donald Trump Forming a Third Political Party – The Patriot Party?
Third Parties can be the Third Rail of the political machine. People who spend time inside this sausage factory will tell you they never work out. Third parties. They only take seats from Republicans. Quick question. With Republicans like these, don’t we need a third party?
Alan Glassman, You Pulled the “Trigger” on the Wrong Guy
Last Wednesday, I was asked if GraniteGrok would observe the voting within the Belknap County Republican Committee (BCRC). Because, according to the two separate folks who didn’t know the other had done so, they thought the voting would be “interesting.”
Belknap County Republican Committee – What a Mess
I’m here in Gilford observing the Belknap County Republican Committee (BCRC) officials’ election. I have cameras watching the “voting” laptop. Wow, this is a complete mess.
NH GOP – Belknap County Republicans. This Ought to Be Interesting.
I’ve had a few phone calls over the last couple of days. Seems like they want GraniteGrok to cover the election of the Officers for the Belknap County Republican Committee.
Impeachment 2.0 – Republicans Are Lining Up to Dump Trump (So What Does That Mean?)
One of the features of a political crisis is you get to see who your enemies are. Faced with a tyrannical incoming Biden Administration, compelled and controlled speech, purity tests, weaponized bureaucrats, propaganda media, and an all about war on the American Republic, who is with us?
Switching Social Media Platforms – The Parler Warning
I can’t believe that I’m writing this here in the United States of America. Clearly, communication between all the 75,000,000 or so individuals who supported Donald Trump’s re-election is under attack.
Discus Doodlings: The GOP “Mascot” Is an Elephant – Long Memory Capability. Me Too, Sadly.
NH State Rep Gregg Hough’s Op-Ed is getting some legs, especially after what happened yesterday. There are a lot of ticked off people – and I’m not talking about the Left either (THAT will be another post – just know they are just one inch away from putting anyone that vote for Trump either into … Read more
Republican Leaders Protect ‘Dumb’ AccuVote Machines Controlled By Dominion
Relying on Dominion to tally New Hampshire’s votes is like trusting Bernie Madoff with our retirement funds. Ignoring what is possibly the greatest crime ever perpetrated against American citizens’ sacred right to vote…is unfathomable.
Maskless NH Republican Organization Day Problem Solved: Photoshop in Tables and a Waitress
Covidism’s high clerics are in high dudgeon. Speaker Hinch died with COVID (at the very least), so it has to be the Republican’s fault. Since masks and mask mandates have shown no ability to stop the spread of anything but maskholes, I beg to differ, but let’s pretend they work the way the faithful claim.
What the Hell Happened in NH?
You may be riding the sugar-high of Republican’s cleaning House in New Hampshire at the State level. It’s a nice feeling. And the prattle about unity and advancing a Republican agenda (or rolling back the Democrat one) are cute. I’ll believe it when I see it. And we’d better see it because we may not get another chance.
Data Point – US House Races.
Abstracted:
-
- Ahead of the 2020 election, Cook listed 27 races as “toss-ups,” meaning they were too close to predict one way or the other. Republicans won all 27.
- Despite being assured that conservatism was about to drown beneath an impending “blue wave,” Republicans won every single close race.
A Little Red State with a Big Blue Crown – Chapter 1
As I said in the prologue, numbers tell a story. While many of us scratch our heads on the split party results on the state government races versus the federal level races, we wonder why this story does not seem to make sense. Why doesn’t our hat match our jacket?
So, trying to pull a “Doug Scamman” in the US House?
For those of you who don’t remember, Doug Scamman was a RINO who served in the NH House for 13 terms. He was Speaker of the NH House from 1986 to 1990 and 2004 to 2006. His greatest feat was to be elected to the Speaker, not by the Republicans, but essentially by the Democrats.
