New Hampshire: Jeb Bradley

Democratic State Senate candidate "Bathroom Bud" Martin tries to campaign his way out of toilet after reporter blows lid off series of stinky decisions while sitting on the Bench

Rather than answering for several questionable rulings while serving on the Bench, District 3 State Senate candidate Bud Martin's team has instead stooped to attacking those who dare recall his criminal-friendly ways that stand as part of the permanent record.

Responding to an inquiry by the editors at Now!Hampshire.com regarding a story I submitted to them for publication, campaign manager Joe Elcock did not challenge its substance in a statement to the online e-newspaper: 

“Bud Martin has a long and respected record throughout New Hampshire both as a judge and as an attorney,” said Elcock.

Former U.S. Rep. Jeb Bradley (R-NH) has established a political action committee for the senate district three special election.

Bradley has not publicly declared that he is running but establishing a PAC could show that Bradley intends to run.

The PAC, titled “Friends of Jeb Bradley for State Senate,” is chaired by Bradley and Republican activist Eugene Leone Jr. is the treasurer.

Democrat Bud Martin officially entered the race on Monday. Martin ran in 2008 but lost to Bill Denley, who resigned the seat after being charged with drunk driving.

If there is no primary the election will take place on April 21st, but if there is a primary challenge on either side of the aisle the primary will take place on April 21st and the general election will be on May 26th.

Martin is running in senate district 3 and is expected to face former U.S. Rep. Jeb Bradley (R-NH). The special election is expected to take place on April 21st.

“Bud Martin is gearing up to run again in State Senate District 3. Bud ran for the seat in 2008 and lost by a very narrow margin,” a NHDP newsletter states. “Bud is a former NH District Court Judge and is currently an attorney and small business owner. He's ready to join Governor Lynch in making responsible and compassionate fiscal decisions and helping New Hampshire's working families through these difficult economic times.

State Democratic Party Chairman Ray Buckley just issued a press release attacking Jeb Bradley, who has announced his intention to run for the state Senate seat formerly held by Joe Kenney. Among Buckley’s criticisms of Bradley: “He has voted for record deficits and drunken-sailor spending.”
I guess Ray hasn’t seen his own Democratic President’s proposed budget, [...]
