Bottom's Up! Don't Forget to Vote for John Shea

by: Dean Barker

Sun Nov 02, 2008 at 20:00:16 PM EST


A short, but massively important, reminder:
If you live in his Executive Council district, don't forget to vote for John Shea.
The district encompasses:
Acworth, Allenstown, Alstead, Andover, Antrim, Barnstead, Bennington, Boscawen, Bow, Bradford, Brookfield, Canterbury, Chesterfield, Chichester, Concord, Danbury, Deerfield, Deering, Dublin, Epsom, Farmington, Francestown, Franklin, Gilmanton, Gilsum, Goshen, Greenfield, Hancock, Harrisville, Henniker, Hill, Hillsborough, Hopkinton, Langdon, Lempster, Loudon, Marlborough, Marlow, Middleton, Milton, Nelson, New Durham, Newbury, New London, Northfield, Northwood, Pembroke, Pittsfield, Rollinsford, Rochester, Roxbury, Salisbury, Somersworth, Stoddard, Strafford, Sullivan, Surry, Sutton, Unity, Walpole , Warner, Washington, Weare, Webster, Westmoreland, Wilmot, and Windsor.
This is one of the few races I'm truly worried about. If it flips back to the Republicans, the EC majority flips.  If that happens, we can look forward to greater gridlock in Concord and the politicization of the appointments process.

One area where Governor Lynch shines in in making appointments that reflect competence, not party favors.  This is an especially attractive quality in the wake of the two-year Benson Nightmare.

Remember, there is no straight-ticket voting anymore, so when you get into the booth on Tuesday, start from the bottom and work your way up the column of Dems. Bottom's up!
