New Hampshire Megathread: Sherman in

[Badger]

Dems won the recount in SD-23.   The Dem majority will be 14-10 next year.

As expected. It's a shame Hosmer lost - if we had just one more seat, we could have amended the Constitution to add a right to vote.

F*** Jeff Woodburn to hell for his arrogance.

Plus that whole being a wife-beater thing.

The Executive Council just voted down Gordon MacDonald’s nomination, 3-2 along party lines

Sununu's not happy and has withdrawn all nominations (presumably until MacDonald is confirmed). He's also vetoed a massive amount of bills.

Well, exactly what I would do if MY nominations were treated this way.... IIRC - Democrats don't have veto-proof majority in Legislature, and, generally, unlike previous years, voting in legislature was extremely polarized (presumably - because Democrats pushed strongly liberal platform hard)....

It's just par for the course in the game Sununu likes to play. He's the guy who made one of, if not his first major action in office to restrict the ability of his political opponents to vote - namely students, who are notably left-leaning. So let us break out the world's smallest violin for his judicial woes.

Well, "if you attack me i will do the same to you" is a first rule of politics... In fact - not only a politics, but life as a whole..

Don't propagate.
