This November, we have the opportunity to elect leaders to the State House and Senate who will fight for common sense solutions to the challenges facing hardworking Granite Staters, stand up against extreme policies, and create a more prosperous future for New Hampshire. Donna Soucy is that leader, and that’s why I’m supporting her State Senate reelection campaign.

Not unlike millions of Americans throughout our country I have been, shall we say, obsessing over the wild ride known as the presidential election cycle. I have taken a particular interest in the polls for the first time, with the hope of being able to interpret the numbers so I could see who was winning, or going to win.

Letters: Worst campaign tagline ever!

Kelly Ayotte’s tagline; ‘Don’t Mass up NH’ might be a cute play on words, but it could offend many potential voters. Since 2020, 44% of new residents moved here from MA and many work there. While NH has cheaper housing, it’s easier to afford a NH home with a MA salary. Is Ms. Ayotte running against the entire state of Massachusetts?!

Many of us grew up watching three television stations and UHF, along with the necessary rabbit ears that always needed tending. Free television now consists of (according to strength of signal) ABC, MeTV, followed by PBS, CBS, NBC, HSN, ion, FOX, and some others originating from New York.

But Rob? Rob’s earned something special as we near the end of this trip. A poetic salute. An accolade. And this? I’ve written two different versions, each of which fails in different ways. The third version, at the end, is the only one worth a warm pitcher of spit.

This is the church at which I worship

I’ve been to a few services. Last night, though. Last night hit different. Usually I check my pockets before I go, but a tiny miracle must’ve crawled out of one. For some time between a few nanoseconds and a lifetime, my brain quit yammering. It sat down, got real quiet behind my face. And in that stillness, I slipped somewhere. Maybe a trance. Maybe a meditation. Maybe a short walk into a parallel dimension. It was so like nothing it was one of the best somethings I’ve ever had. This church is heaven—even if it has no opinion about anything.

Today, our big trip flips. This isn’t just pretty deserts or cold coastlines anymore. This is Africa the way every kid imagines it. Wide-eyed, lions-on-the-savanna Africa.

In 50 days, we will be heading to the polls to choose a new President and Vice-President, as well as members of the House, and in some states Senators, and in states like New Hampshire, Governor, Executive Council, State Representatives, State Senators, and County offices. It is often said that “this election is the most important of our lifetime,” to which I usually laugh, but believe that this one may be because our choices represent two very different directions for our state and country.

Trump then told the world audience a racist whopper about Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, who were eating people’s domestic pets, their dogs and cats. Buster took notice of this one, perhaps the only living creature who believed Trump’s tall tale. But Buster has no interest in becoming a pug burger and will now likely support the former president moving forward.

As we move from the warm summer months to the crisp days of fall, it’s important to remain vigilant about the risks posed by mosquito-borne illnesses, particularly Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE). While rare, EEE is a serious viral disease with a high mortality rate. Tragically, this has been underscored by a recent death here in New Hampshire, reminding us all of the critical need for awareness and prevention.
