Anyone who tells you that America is in decline…doesn’t know what they’re talking about!”

Quote of the Week

“If you own a car, how can you be poor?” Rep. Jim Belanger (R-Hollis). This statement was made on the House floor while he was arguing in favor of raising the maximum interest rates on payday (title) loans from 34% to 300%. In title loans, cars are used as collateral.

 

The House has been busy voting on bills left over from last year and there are still several more to go. The Senate will be voting on a number of bills next week. Both chambers have also been busy working on new legislation and hearings have already begun on a number of bills.

Real Voter Fraud by the GOP

Joan Flood Ashwell,  Election Law Specialist

League of Women Voters of New Hampshire

 

Carefully Planned Election Day Fraud is an Insult to Voters and Election Officials in New Hampshire

 

Concord, N.H.–The out-of-state con artists depicted in a recent video committed serious fraud, and the League of Women Voters of New Hampshire urges the Attorney General to prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law. The League of Women Voters supports the integrity of elections and trusts in the competence of our local election officials.

 

The fraud shown on the video was carefully manufactured to make it appear that New Hampshire doesn’t have a system of checks and balances in place to protect our votes. That is not the case. The only thing this video shows is that those with time, resources and criminal intent and with no respect for the fundamental laws of our nation can sometimes deceive our neighbors who work as election officials.

 

There is no reason to believe that New Hampshire citizens engage in such un-American behavior. The League extends its sympathy to the families of the recently deceased whose names were used so callously.
