Saturday Before the Election, and Still No Endorsement

by: Dean Barker

Sat Oct 30, 2010 at 22:59:00 PM EDT


You would think an instinctively right-wing, Manchester centric, statewide newspaper would have endorsed former Manchester Mayor Frank Guinta by now, despite conspicuously rejecting him in the primary.

But unless I missed something, the Union Leader has been suspiciously quiet.

Of course, I wouldn't want to endorse someone who might be facing a criminal probe into $355,000 dollars of potentially illegal campaign money either.

This will be interesting.

Speaking of which - GOTV!
Call NHDP at 603-225-6899 to find out how to help.  
Call the Shea-Porter campaign at 603-531-9653 to find out how to help.
ALL HANDS ON DECK! WE CAN WIN THIS RACE!

I suspect the UL, like the rest of us, has reservations about Guinta's character.
