Governor Talk Taxes, Environment In Online Forum By JOSH ROGERS (/PEOPLE/JOSH-ROGERS) • JUL 17, 2020 Share (http://facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nhpr.org%2Fpost%2Fdemocratic-candidates-nh-governor-ta environment-online- forum&t=Democratic%20Candidates%20For%20N.H.%20Governor%20Talk%20Taxes%2C%20Environment%20In%20Online% The Democrats running for New Hampshire governor met in a Zoom forum hosted by Dartmouth College Thursday night, where they laid out competing strategies for how their party can win the corner office this year. State Sen. Dan Feltes and Executive Councilor Andru Volinsky both made the case that Gov. Chris Sununu is blocking progress on issues ranging from education and voting rights, to the economy and the environment.

CREDIT JOSH ROGERS / NHPR Feltes pitched himself as capable of leading on core Democratic issues, without sowing division within the party. “Look, I don’t think we should be critical of other Democrats on clean energy when Chris Sununu is the singular obstacle to clean energy in this state,” said Feltes. “Just like I don’t think we should be critical of other Democrats on the most progressive budget in state history.” Subscribe here to NHPR's email newsletters for more New Hampshire news. (https://nhpr.us20.list- manage.com/subscribe?u=518d7d011c9b8b095cda07361&id=0e92408183) Feltes argued his work in the Legislature, and the support his campaign has earned from other Democratic lawmakers, shows the wisdom of a lesson he said he learned early in life. “I was always told by my mom: It’s about showing up, not sounding off,” Feltes said. Volinsky countered that he’s used his seat at the Executive Council table to block high-profile Sununu nominations, including to the New Hampshire Supreme Court and key regulatory posts. “I’m not a legislator, so I don’t pass legislation,” Volinsky said, “But I’m the one who stopped Sununu’s climate change deniers from leading our environmental services agency and the site evaluation committee.” Throughout the forum, Volinsky cast himself as the more progressive candidate. Unlike Feltes, he opposes all new natural gas pipelines and won’t promise to veto new broad-based taxes. He also said Feltes’ claims of legislative success often fell short. “That progressive budget? Guess where we are in the nation for state support of public education? We remain 50th in the nation for state support for public education,” Volinsky said. “Three great governors – Jeanne Shaheen, Maggie Hassan, and John Lynch – tried to close loopholes in order to solve school funding, and all failed.” Both Democrats enter this race with low statewide name recognition, and with less campaign money than Sununu, a Republican who’s running for a third term as governor.

  • Fall Elections Are Less Than 3 Months Away One of the Many Impacts Of
    Fall Elections are Less Than 3 Months Away One of the many impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic is that some events that are non-pandemic-related get lost in the all-COVID, all-the-time news coverage. In the midst of the recent NH House and Senate meetings in-person at different locations than their usual State House chambers, the filing period for all State elective offices quietly opened and closed. Other than one US Senator whose term does not end this year - Sen. Maggie Hassan (D) - every NH state, county and local elective office is up for grabs and there are some surprises in the NH House, Senate and Executive Council line-ups for the September primary and the November general elections. In the House, 38 Democrats and 37 Republicans did not file for re-election, which will leave some big holes, especially in committee leadership positions. The chair of the Commerce & Consumer Affairs Committee, Ed Butler, is stepping down and the Science and Technology Committee is losing both its chair and vice-chair, Bob Backus and Howard Moffett. The Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs Committee will lose its vice-chair, Polly Campion. And the Children and Family Law and Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committees will both lose their vice-chairs, Skip Berrien and Beth Rodd. In addition, two Division chairs of the House Finance Committee will not be back next session because they are seeking higher office: Patricia Lovejoy (D) is running for the Executive Council seat left open by the retirement of Russell Prescott; and Susan Ford (D) is running for State Senate District One, the seat now held by David Starr (R).

(LLOYD JONES PHOTO) CONWAY — The Gibson Center for Senior Services went viral Tuesday, hosting the first of its annual five-minute candidate forums via Zoom over the internet due to the COVD-19 pandemic. https://www.conwaydailysun.com/news/local/democrats-stump-in-gibsons-virtual-5-minute-forum/article_00e837aa-dc0d-11ea-ba15-4bfe6cd0cf98.html 1/5 8/24/2020 Democrats stump in Gibson's virtual 5-minute forum | Local News | conwaydailysun.com And while it was a virtual success for the candidates, as a record 14 Democrats participated, only a handful of citizens tuned in to watch the 90-minute event. Fortunately, Valley Vision Channel 3 and the Sun will re-air the forum online and on their websites. The forum, organized by Gibson Program Director Jill Reynolds and co-moderated by Knute Ogren, chair of the Carroll County Democrats, attracted nearly every candidate on Conway’s primary ballot, from U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen; U.S. Rep. Chris Pappas; gubernatorial candidates Executive Councilor Andru Volinsky and state Sen. Dan Feltes, both of Concord; to fellow Democrats running for state and county offices, including incumbent District 1 Executive Councilor Michael Cryans; and Theresa Swanick of Effingham, who is running for state Senate in District 3.

Chris Sununu while oering dierent blueprints for tackling some of New Hampshire’s biggest issues at an online forum this week. Feltes – the state Senate majority leader om Concord who has taken the decades-old pledge to veto a state sales or income tax – said during the Thursday night forum that “I don’t support a broad-based income tax. I know that some folks do.” That was an indirect jab at Volinsky, a fellow Concord Democrat who represents District 2 on the state’s ‹ve-member Executive Council. Volinsky has refused to take the pledge, arguing that no options should be taken o the table. Feltes pointed to the “concrete results” of last year’s budget, which he said was the “most progressive budget in state history with the greatest public school education funding in state history.” Feltes shouldn’t feel too proud, Volinsky noted. New Hampshire remains “50th in the nation for state support of public education even under this progressive budget.

    September 2, 2020 SUNUNU LEADS PRIMARY AND GENERAL ELECTION CHALLENGERS; VOLINSKY AND FELTES EVENLY MATCHED AMONG DEMOCRATS By: Sean P. McKinley, M.A. [email protected] Zachary S. Azem, M.A. 603-862-2226 Andrew E. Smith, Ph.D. cola.unh.edu/unh-survey-center DURHAM, NH – With less than one week to go before the primary, Execu ve Councilor Andru Volinsky and State Senate Majority Leader Dan Feltes are evenly matched in the race for the Democra c nomina on for governor. Incumbent Chris Sununu holds a commanding lead over Franklin City Councilor Karen Testerman and con nues to enjoy leads of more than twenty percentage points over his prospec ve Democra c rivals for the governorship. Approval of Sununu’s tenure as governor remains high; seven in ten approve of his overall job performance and three-quarters approve of his handling of the COVID-19 situa on. These findings are based on the latest Granite State Poll*, conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center. One thousand and nine hundred forty-nine (1,949) Granite State Panel members completed the survey online between August 28 and September 1, 2020. The margin of sampling error for the survey is +/- 2.2 percent. Included were 1,889 likely 2020 general elec on voters (MSE = +/- 2.3%), 839 likely Democra c primary voters (MSE = +/- 3.4%) and 703 likely Republican primary voters (MSE = +/- 3.7%).
