SENATE RACE Defense Cuts Governor Gregg maintains that defense cuts are necessary but at a careful and cautious rate. The cuts he supports are at a level slightly higher than those proposed by the President, but lower than Bill Clinton1s defense cut proposal. The Governor's Democratic opponent, John Rauht wants a 50% defense cut over five years. None of the savings would be applied to the budget deficit but would instead go wholly to retraining programs. Governor Gregg believes that this drastic cut is irresponsible, would wreak economic havoc on New Hampshire's defense dependent industry1 would force the closing of the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, and would cripple the nation's ability to respond to military threats.

    ************************************************************* Kathy Sullivan, Chair September 23,2004 - Lawrence Norton, Esquire General Counsel Federal Election Commission 999 E Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20463 C RE: Complaint of the New Hampshire Democratic Party Against Nader for Choices for America, and Norway Hill Associates, Inc., MUR 55 13 Dear Mr. Norton: r- On August 10, 2004, the New Hampshire Democratic Party filed the above-referenced complaint with respect to activities of Norway Hill Associates, Inc. in collecting signatures to get Ralph Nader on the ballot as a candidate for President in the State of New Hampshire. Based upon additional information that has come to our attention, including the FEC filing made by the Nader Campaign this past week, we would like to s’upplementthe complaint filed August 10,2004. We believe that this FEC filing establishes coordination betweenSNorwayHil1and the Nader Campaign. We also believe it shows Norway Hill and the Nader Campaign are now working in concert to “cure” impermissible in-kind corporate donations by attributing these donations to individuals after the fact. As stated in our August 10,2004 complaint, Norway Hill Associates, Inc., a New Hampshire for profit corporation, undertook a signature drive to get Ralph Nader on the ballot in New Hampshire. According to published press reports on August 10, 2004 (see Portsmouth HeraZd, August 10,2004, attached as Exhibit A), aNader spokesman denied knowledge of the petition effort. Earlier press reports raised questions of whether Republican signature gatherers were making in-kind donations to the Nader campaign. (See Union Leader, August 8, 2004, attached as Exhibit B.) . When asked on August 9th about whether Norway Hill had made an in-kind donation, the company’s principal, David Carney, said he hadn’t yet figured out what it was.

  • Case Studies of Women in New Hampshire Politics
    Case studies of women in New Hampshire politics: An exploration of the barriers and supports for political candidates and incumbents By Kathy L. DesRoches Submitted to Plymouth State University College of Graduate Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements for candidacy for the degree of Doctor of Education September 30, 2014 AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Kathy L. DesRoches for the degree of Doctor of Education in Learning, Leadership and Community presented on September 30, 2014. Title: Case Studies of Women in New Hampshire politics: An exploration of the barriers and supports for political candidates and incumbents Abstract approved: __________________________________________________________ Pamela L. Clark, Ph.D. Dissertation Committee Chair The intent of this study was to discover what could be learned from the experiences of the five women in elected political leadership roles in New Hampshire that would be instructive to other women interested in seeking public office and could be used to encourage and support more women candidates. Using a multiple case study approach, each woman was interviewed and books, newspapers accounts, and other electronic documents were used as supporting documentation. The results of the women’s stories revealed that relationships and prior experience provide foundational support for women running for office. Relationships offer opportunities for recruitment, mentoring, and networking. Experience helps women to gain the skills, wisdom, and confidence to run for and succeed in office. While the women described fundraising and balancing their families and careers as challenging, they did not identify either of these or any other factor as a barrier in their journeys to public office in New Hampshire.

  • A Claremont Reader
    T VÄtÜxÅÉÇà extwxÜ A Compilation of Essays Demonstrating the Constitutional and Policy Deficiencies of the Claremont Series of Public School Funding Decisions 1993 - 2006 Foreword, Article Introductions, and Epilogue by ZÜxzÉÜç `A fÉÜz Attorney at Law and Member of the House Representing Grafton District 3 FOREWARD It is the purpose of this collection of writings to demonstrate both the utter lack of constitutional legitimacy of the Claremont series of public school funding decisions and the right and imperative constitutional duty of the Legislature to repudiate them. The central majoritarian, representative organizational principles of the constitutions of those governments, including that of the State of New Hampshire, that were patterned after the British model, contain a glaring anomaly: the judiciary, which is not elected but appointed by the executive, to serve not for a short period but “during good behavior.” The principle of judicial independence enshrined in this constitutional arrangement orig- inated in the British Act of Settlement of 1689 as a typically practical British response to the experience of the constitutional struggles of the Seventeenth Century, in which Parlia- ment was always at a disadvantage in legal controversies against a King who not only ap- pointed all the judges, but could remove them at will. Being exempted from periodic accountability to any other person, group, or entity, courts are enabled to render judg- ments strictly on the merits of the cases brought before them, free of political pressure. The benefit to the judiciary of this constitutional quid pro quo carries, however, a countervailing burden: the judicial branch must refrain from involvement in politics, and it must be candid in its opinions.
