Former NH State Representative,
Strafford, New Hampshire
Served on House Task Force on Campaign Reform and former member of the House Election Law Committee.
@SenatorShaheen warns of current restrictive voting laws. The legislature remains in session. The full picture of how to vote this fall won't be known until veto day this fall. Voters must adopt a reliable source of info to best prepare. Adopt now. @OpenDemoAction#NHPolitics
HB 1569's repeal of the way Granite Staters have had options for voting since 1994, now subject to a federal court ruling on its constitutionality; and cause for multiple legislative bandaids to help blunt its extreme effect. @SenatorShaheen 's message is timely.
#NHPolitics
Unnecessarily restrictive voting laws importantly highlighted by @SenatorShaheen Federal SAVE Act would require states to give up their voter rolls for govt inspection, something Trump also trying to do thru executive order and by force, in some cases successfully. #NHPolitics
Who else misses the boring, no-drama days of @JoeBiden?
No chaos. No circus. No daily embarrassment.
Just quiet competence from a president who actually knew how to do the job.
Simply because you're a consistent voter over many years does not mean you know how to vote now. Major changes since Nov., 2024 and ongoing require voters be informed to safeguard their rights and freedoms. $50K is chump change when $13M remains in HAVA account. #NHPolitics
Shame on Trump admin for longstanding, public, in-person support of an autocrat half way around the world. An important lesson: Americans must turn out in record numbers this fall to choose Democracy, also. #NHPolitics
I congratulate @magyarpeterMP and the people of Hungary for standing up to the authoritarian backsliding that has gripped the world since the turn of the century. Today, democracy triumphed over authoritarianism and Hungary and the world are better for it. #NHPolitics#Hungary
An estimated 69 million American women don't have a birth certificate matching their current legal name. Both a birth certificate and a marriage certificate would be needed to establish their identity. Imagine learning of this on election day. @OpenDemoAction#NHPolitics
Call your member of congress to stop the SAVE Act. Only citizens can vote, don’t make them pay a poll tax or make harder for you to vote. Women, students, military families, and low income Americans will be most impacted by this voter suppression bill.
Tough to run for any higher office anywhere in the country following two court decisions antithetical to democracy that allows flow of money into politics equivalent to the water flowing over Niagara Falls. Repeal needed. @HeathHowardNH is a vehicle for reform. #NHPolitics
💥FINAL PUSH💥
The top three fundraisers in the #NH01 Democratic Primary:
•Are millionaires
•Hold stocks
•Are already spending loads of cash on advertisements
Despite this, I’m in 2nd place, one of just two candidates polling in double digits. I’m not a millionaire. I’m a Gen-Z State Rep. NH Reps make $100/yr despite working 20+ hrs/wk. We are the lowest paid state reps in the country.
The issue of U.S. debt is not getting the attention it needs. Under Trump, the debt grows 1 trillion every 5 months; the war costs at least $1 - 2 billion/day. But no money for healthcare subsidies and more. #NHPolitics
🚨 POWELL BIG WARNING 🚨
FED CHAIR POWELL:
U.S. DEBT IS GROWING MUCH FASTER THAN THE ECONOMY & CALLS IT “NOT SUSTAINABLE.”
ALSO WARNS: “IT WILL NOT END WELL IF WE DON’T ACT SOON.”
U.S. DEBT ~$39 TRILLION WITH INTEREST COSTS ~$1 TRILLION A YEAR.
TRUMP MAY LOSE MID… Show more
Nothing unequivocal in @CindeWarmington 's position statement. No NH municipality will be forced to deal with water, sewer, trash, or traffic-capacity issues, nor anyone bear guilt about the inhumane treatment of anyone, all key American values. #NHPolitics
It must not be so intimidating, so inconvenient, so punitive, costly, or damaging to the exercise of a fundamental right. Sen. Shaheen: 202-224-2841; Sen. Hassan: 202-224-3324. Urge each to oppose the "SAVE" act being debated as I write this. #NHPolitics@OpenDemocracyNH

We enter a never-before campaign season: AI-produced content; deep fake videos; big money influence; Trump's threats to manipulate/control elections; oppressive voting restrictions; hucksters in the waiting. We can trust the real voice of @CindeWarmington#NHPolitics
It’s crystal clear that Kelly cannot be trusted to fight for New Hampshire families. Granite Staters are long-overdue for a Governor who will be ready on Day 1 to take on Donald Trump and stand up for them. (2/2) #NHPolitics
It is fundamentally wrong to place unwarranted hurdles - this one and more - on a fundamental right. A Democracy does not benefit, certainly, especially one on the cusp of desertion by a third of Americans who are curious about life without it. #NHPolitics
244 Granite Staters turned away from the polls in 2025.
At a time when voting rules are becoming more and more restrictive, lawmakers shouldn’t block small improvements that help voters navigate the system.

Looking forward to tonight's review of the courage & daring by both men and women to be freed from the bonds of ownership by other humans, with the simple goal of equal treatment under the law, including equal access to education and the ballot box. @OpenDemocracyNH#NHPolitics

In May, '21, Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-Ga) publicly characterized this chaotic scene as more resembling "a normal tourist visit." For his great act of defying reality, he remains in office today by way of his loyal voters of Georgia's Cong. 9th district.
I watch every Last Word. It's destination TV. Love your zeal for teaching civics, process, history lessons, your love for Dorchester/Boston, and Democracy. Thank you. #NHpolitics

@HeathHowardNH is defying the odds, confident that even in the darkness of our current state of political affairs, he will break through and make very positive contributions for ordinary people. He deserves your continuing consideration for a seat in congress. #NHpolitics
I’m a progressive, but my solutions for a better New Hampshire are for everyone. There will always be more that unites us than divides us, and it’s time that YOU had a candidate that puts people first, no matter what. Let’s do it together, New Hampshire.

A perfect example of projection; Trump is what he accuses Biden to be. However, credit where it's due: Trump is the quintessential name-caller-in chief. A bully in a sandbox. Childlike. Those of us firmly planted in reality extend Biden the best of good wishes. #NHpolitics
Trump on President Joe Biden today:
“He is a criminal and should be in jail. A major lowlife and failure. An ugly person, both inside and out. I beat him badly and love watching him squirm now.”
Drop a 💙 for President Joe Biden
