New Hampshire: James Pindell

Open Thread: Town Meeting Day

By Dean Barker

This isn't anything I can talk about with objectivity, because both in both the place I live and the parameters of my work there are critically important local votes at stake given the state of the economy.  So I won't.

And for some fun reading, check out James Pindell's new column, on some provocative meeting day agenda items that likely won't get discussed, but maybe deserve discussing.  Such as passing a resolution to do away with county level government, for example.

This is an Open Thread, with the hope that some of it will be devoted to Hamster thoughts from around the state on Meetin' Day.

Shaheen was participating in the first live televised debate against U.S. Sen. John Sununu (R-Waterville Valley).

"Governor can you give one issue that you believe in your gut to be absolutely true but that the polls suggest to be politically unpopular," Pindell asked in a debate held at New England College.
