As a voter (and candidate), I’d like to see other candidates disclose their independent legislative accomplishments, if any, which in my view, are an indicator of being the most qualified to fill the positions sought. Of Districts 5 and 26 State House candidates, to my knowledge, only Alvin See and I have had bills sponsored […]
Thank you to every voter in Andover, Danbury, Hill, Salisbury, Webster for your votes in the Primary on September 13. I do not take your votes for granted. And now we are gearing up for the November 8 General Election. Many candidates on the ballot are knocking on doors, making phone calls, and mailing flyers […]
Ken and Lee Wells are our next door neighbors. We could not ask for better! We know we can call them in an emergency and also just for help in moving something heavy or figuring out the computer. Ken’s response has always been “I’ll be right there.” Over the years we have become good friends, […]
New Hampshire is blessed with an abundance of small independent farms. The best tomato I’ve ever tasted came from Tim Gallagher’s Windswept Farm in Salisbury. The eggs we get from Cedartree Farm, also in Salisbury, are so delicious that they’ve ruined eggs for me elsewhere. Donna and Phil at Huntoon Farm in Danbury have great […]
Sometimes good things don’t get the exposure they need. Here are some things to feel good about. Infrastructure and Jobs Act, signed into law in November 2021, brought $1.2 billion into New Hampshire for road and bridge repair, expanded broadband, clean drinking water, protection from wildfires and cyberattacks, public transportation and airport improvement, charging stations, […]
An organization, WeThePeopleNH.org, states that New Hampshire elections are vulnerable using programmable voting machines. This is a lie. Don’t want to trust me? Call the Secretary of States office for the facts at 603 271-3246 or email Elections@nullsos.nh.gov. Let me assure voters in Franklin and all of New Hampshire they have nothing to fear. The […]
Another successful election is wrapped up! We are impressed again and again by our wonderful town. We are so grateful to all who helped out and all who turned out to vote! We received help and support from JJ’s, the Hub, the police, the faculty, staff, and students of AE/MS, the Select Board, all of […]
In my opinion, Representative Andrus displays the same blindness toward the abortion discussion as do some of her like-minded Republican associates. Early in her big ad, published in the August Beacon, she states that she is pro-life and pro-limited government. Later on, she praises a definition of “Liberty”: “The quality or state of being free. […]
I’m Lorna Carlisle and I am running for State Representative in District 5 (Andover, Danbury, Hill, Salisbury and Webster). I’m a Webster native and now a Salisbury resident for 18 years. After retiring in 2021, I was able to devote myself full time to the farm stand we started in 2005. I looked forward to […]
I write, with enthusiasm, to support the candidacy of Mike Cryans, as he runs for the New Hampshire Executive Council, District 2, a post he has served before with great distinction. Mike’s qualities hardly need repeating. He is known for his honesty, integrity, and effectiveness as a leader. Other laudable qualities include discipline, strength, commitment, […]
