So Kids, What Did We Learn From This Week’s House Session (06/08/23)?

June 9, 2023June 9, 2023

by Judy Aron

We learned that Republican attendance still put them in the minority today as compared to the Democrat caucus. With 8 Republican members out, and 4 on the Dem side, it put the numbers around 191D-187R in the morning and hovering around 188D-182R later in the day. It is the reason some nanny state bills passed … Read more

My previous post on re-elected Dan Eaton (D-Stoddard) brought up an interesting question: where does he really live? He lists 139 Power Line Rd, Stoddard NH as his official domicile/residence as living in the NH State Representative District in which he lives.

Molly Gray Does Not Meet the Constitutional Requirements to be LT. Governor of Vermont

November 6, 2020

by Op-Ed

Our Vermont Constitution is very fair and inclusive. And Molly Gray is clearly capable, well-spoken, very ambitious, smart, with the full backing of the establishment in power. All great things for a Lt. Governor. But does she meet the qualification to hold the office?

436 Walnut St. Manchester is the place several transient campaign workers flop at night. The Coalition of NH Taxpayers has identified two so far, Lavanya Prabhakar and Vedika Gopal. Neither has contacted us to prove their domicile status.

Regarding the new, last-minute statement from the NH AG’s Office that makes the claim any students from colleges in New Hampshire can vote here – it’s false! To be a student at a state college such as UNH, Keene State, Plymouth, or any state school there is an issue of domicile – one’s legal residence.

Time For A Voter Fraud History Lesson, NH

October 14, 2020

As we see an actual arrest and extradition of an out-of-state voter by the NH Attorney General’s Office it pays to look back at some old, but very relevant articles from the CNHT website. The facts are simple.

Dartmouth Student Resigns NH House Seat – State Won’t Cover Commute Mileage From his Home in California?

June 9, 2020

by Steve MacDonald

Garrett Muscatel, I am told, was a great guy. That, from some Republicans who knew him. And I’m happy to hear it. But he took a NH House seat from an actual resident by being allowed to claim his temporary dorm housing as proof of permanent residency.

The twisted logic of the Democrat’s voter laws

May 16, 2020

by Op-Ed

THE OTHER DAY I read an op-ed in the newspaper written by Sen. Melanie Levesque in which she advocated for automatic voter registration when someone obtains a New Hampshire driver’s license. Does this mean that Sen. Levesque suddenly believes that voters should vote in the state where we hold a driver license? This would represent … Read more

Where is (Grafton Dist. 12) NH House Rep – Garrett Muscatel? Home – In California!

May 13, 2022May 13, 2020

by Steve MacDonald

It’s a good thing the NH House is self quarantined from the statehouse because Grafton Dist 12 Democrat Garrett Muscatel is missing in action. Well, not missing so much as not residing at his “home address.” The one from which he ran for office in New Hampshire. That would be his ‘Dorm’ at Dartmouth.

Federal Judge Refuses to Block New Hampshire’s New Voter Residency Law

November 29, 2019

by Steve MacDonald

Democrats created dual-status status rights in NH or voting purposes but only for out-of-staters. If you are in NH on election day but live in another state, feel free to vote there or here. Actual residents can’t do that but a law to end the practice is called vote-suppression.

by Ed Mosca

This: From the linked op-ed: The ACLU is arguing that the law is too confusing to implement in upcoming elections, including the presidential primary in February, and they’re right. Agencies that should be able to explain just what the law does or does not do, including the Secretary of State’s Office and the Division of … Read more

NH Election Law: Mayor Pete is Lying Out His Buttigieg

November 7, 2019November 7, 2019

by Steve MacDonald

Mayor Pete is sticking his Buttigieg where it doesn’t belong. He’s standing with the NH ACLU and college students, some of whom could be from Indiana, where they have a residency requirement for voting and no same-day registration.

Gov. Sununu Vetoes the Democrats Residency Law Repeal Efforts

August 5, 2019

by Steve MacDonald

New Hampshire Democrats continue to work their open borders strategy. The Left’s war on your state sovereignty. But Good Sununu stepped up and blocked their way when he vetoed HB105 and HB106.

Does “New Hampshire” or “America” Actually Mean Anything to Democrats?

July 27, 2019

by Steve MacDonald

The Left’s southern border policy looks increasingly like the New Hampshire Democrat position on out-of-state voting. If you happen to find your way here, you are one of us!

The #VolinskyAgenda’s Silly Coup Attempt

This breathless tweet from Democrat operative -oops, I mean WMUR crack political reporter- Johnny DiStaso: In the underlying article, DiStaso writes: In a statement to WMUR, Volinsky said, “A slim majority of the New Hampshire Supreme Court decided last year that the Executive Council has a role in advising the governor with respect to vetoes. … Read more

Minority Leader Dick Hinch – “I don’t believe it is unreasonable for us to require that those who participate in our elections be residents of our state,”

CONCORD, NH- House Republican Leader Dick Hinch (R-Merrimack) released the following statement in response to public hearings held Thursday on HB105, relative to domicile residency, voter registration, and investigation of voter verification letters and HB106, relative to the terms “resident,” “inhabitant,” “residence,” and “residency.” “HB106 seeks to repeal common sense legislation that the State just … Read more

Once again, Republicans refuse to stand up for…..Republicans

December 3, 2018

by Skip

You can be sure that if this was on the other foot, that it was a Republican that had won with “uncertain” residency credentials, NH Dem Party Chair would be threatening to bomb the ~~Hague~~ NH State Senate chambers. But once again, we see limpness of elected Republican spines in the face of confrontation (reformatted, emphasis mine):

There’s no chance Republican senators will challenge the credentials of newly elected Democrat Jon Morgan, according to Sen. Chuck Morse, R-Salem, who will serve as Republican minority leader when the Senate reconvenes for the new year. As far as Republicans are concerned, the matter was settled when Morgan’s opponent, Republican incumbent Bill Gannon of Sandown, withdrew his complaint to the Ballot Law Commission just before its Monday meeting, Morse said. Gannon’s challenge, based on constitutional residency requirements, conjured memories among some longtime political observers of a case involving Gov. Sununu — not the incumbent, but his father, Gov. John H. Sununu, who served from 1983 to 1989.

I really don’t care about the Papa Smurf historical anecdote except for one thing he has common with Trump: he fights. Chuck Morse comes out looking like a beta male in this.

And all of a sudden…

So just now, I get a rather terse phone call from a man who says his name is Brad Cook (The name on the phone came up as Sheehan Phinney). He says he’s the Chairman of the Ballot Law Commission. He asks me if I’m the one who wrote the complaint about Jon Morgan’s residency … Read more
