The so-called privacy freaks who refused to cough up voter roll data have been awfully quiet when you’d expect them to be caterwauling. After all, it was your privacy that concerned them. That’s what they said. We can’t give up voter roll data to the Feds to ensure it’s clean; there’s information in there and ... Read more

Candidates no longer run for a particular office, whether local, state, or federal. Today’s politician is running for attention. They may be running for governor, but their eyes are already on a Senate seat, or even the Oval Office. This is partly a product of a political system that has dwarfed the government in importance, ... Read more

Eight months ago, a dude in a dress shot up a school in Tumbler Ridge, Canada.

New England is a small but very diverse region of the country. From the sparsely populated, generally conservative Aroostook County in Northern Maine to the rather liberal, densely populated Hartford, CT, you can find every type of U.S. Voter imaginable.

Alderman Derek Thibeault’s recent comments in InkLink on taxes and state funding overlook a fundamental fact: residents can reasonably hold local government accountable when local government continues to increase spending and, as a result, increase the tax burden on taxpayers. Since 2023, Nashua’s General Fund budget has increased by approximately 20.89%, while Enterprise Fund expenditures ... Read more
