The upcoming race for the Second Congressional District gets more interesting by the day. The latest entry to this western district is Concord Firefighter and Democratic State Representative John Dejoie.
I think this is a margin campaign.
There are already other candidates and capital in this race that will far outpace anything [...]
About a week and a half ago I noticed that the NH House Committee on Ethics announced that it was starting an investigation of the matter relative to the state lease of the Milford-Bennington Railroad and the influence of Rep. Peter Leishman over the lease. Rep. Leishman is the owner [...]
One of the things I’m continually trying to improve on is my cooking. I’ve had some successes with casseroles and quiches. My attempt at a pot roast was like my attempt to run for State Representative three years ago against then incumbent Rep. Martha McLeod from Franconia.
