Reader Feels Democrats are Focusing on Wrong Issues

By Gene Shaw

This letter is in response to a recent letter published in The Andover Beacon by Pecco Beaufays. In this letter, he states that he “feels sorry” for the Andover residents who still believe and support the lies of Donald Trump. I think, if you check the facts, you will find out that the Democrats are […]

Warner Democratic Chair Offers Praise to Retiring Republican Representative

By David Bates

I’m writing as the Democratic chair of the Town of Warner to thank New Hampshire Representative Natalie Wells for her service in the legislature. In 2016, 2018, and 2020, Natalie ran to represent the five-town floterial district of Danbury, Andover, Salisbury, Webster, and Warner – an exhausting task in itself. After winning in 2016 and […]

There is a housing shortage that threatens Andover’s long-term viability as a prosperous community. A couple of months ago I attended a meeting of Lakes Region business leaders.
