Letter To The Editor

Americans have a choice this election.  Northwood has an additional choice for the position of State Representative. My husband, Alec Correa, and I are voting for Bruce Hodgdon as our next State Representative. 

During my discussion with Bruce, he told me he was a small businessman, who feels if he does not run and win this office no one will continue to speak for small business and the taxpayers of Northwood.  He also told me he would like to be able to hire more people, but can not with the uncertain climate projected by the current Presidential Administration, but feels the current legislature here in the State of New Hampshire needs to keep on doing what it is doing: cutting spending, balancing the budget, and not increasing regulatory legislation.

If these three things are not continued, we might as well die because we will not be living free. We are also concerned that one of our most primary rights, Freedom of Religion, will continue to be stripped if the opposition wins the election.

We moved to New Hampshire from Massachusetts almost 10 years ago. We do not want an income tax, a sales tax, or any other taxes imposed on the citizens of New Hampshire.  Massachusetts has all these taxes and they are still begging for more.

Please vote for Bruce Hodgdon as Northwood’s State Representative.
Signed,
Marie and Alec Correa


Letter

I support Bob Burns for Executive Council for several reasons, such as his very fine management as Treasurer of Hillsborough County’s money after taking over from Pappas.

But most importantly, when I was in the legislature Chris Pappas would sit out in the anti-room playing on his laptop computer not listening to the arguments of why proposed legislative laws should or should not pass.  His disrespect of the nearly 400 who sat in their seats and listened to fellow legislators showing respect and attention to duty, was in my opinion an insult to his constituents.

Executive Councilors must listen to constituents in order to vote appointments for the courts, department heads etc. and I know Bob Burns will do the listening.

Local High School Theatre Students
Volunteer To Trick Or Treat “Because Hunger Is A Very Scary Thing”

The International Thespian Society (ITS), a division of the Educational Theatre Association (EdTA), is pleased to announce the participation of Coe-Brown Northwood Academy’s Thespian Troupe 5976 in the Trick or Treat so Kids Can Eat   Program.  Trick or Treat so Kids Can Eat is a national community service program for ITS-member schools to collect canned and dry goods for local charities and food banks. Thespian troupes from across the nation are participating this year.  Theatre students from Coe-Brown will be dressed in costumes to collect food donations during the local Trick or Treat activities in Northwood, Strafford and Nottingham. These donations will go to benefit the Northwood Food Pantry.

Thousands of pounds of food will be collected in one night across the country, giving organizations the ability to help thousands of local people. In addition, donations of non-perishable food items will be accepted at the main office of CBNA until Halloween. Senior Ashlyn Correia is chairing this initiative as her senior portfolio project.

Here’s what everyone needs to know about the new Voter ID law and the November 6 election:

1. Valid photo IDs include (but are not limited to) in and out of state driver’s license, in and out of state nondriver’s license photo ID, and passports regardless of expiration date.

2. You do not need to have a photo ID to vote. If you do not have a valid photo ID you can exercise your right to vote by signing an affidavit declaring you are who you claim to be.

3. No one should be turned away at the polls on November 6th for not having a valid photo ID.

Also, you can be identified by any election official, such as the moderator, the town clerk or the supervisors of the checklist, if they know you. The ballot clerks are not election officials and cannot perform this identification. 

While many of us have a lot of questions about the need for this law, it might be best to show your ID at the polls, especially if the lines are long.  We don’t want to slow down the process in what will be a very busy day and perhaps discourage someone in line behind us to leave without voting. The place for the validity of this law to be challenged is in the courts, and that is happening.

Exercise Your Right To Vote!

Letter


“A government that is big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take everything you have” --ageless wisdom. 

And so once again an advocate of ever growing government, Lucy Edwards, expressed her opposition to the proposed N.H. constitutional amendment that would prohibit an income tax.  Mrs. Edwards labors under several misconceptions that always work to deprive free citizens of their liberty and their money... (but then that’s redundant isn’t it?) Supposedly she is concerned that the taxpayers would have to defend themselves in lawsuits brought by those that are trying to grab the taxpayers own money. I thought she was joking.  But of course she is not. Irony of ironies, citizens who are out to defend their freedom against those that would take it. What gall.

What Mrs. Edwards and other advocates of ever growing government want is more money to spend and waste, regardless of its effectiveness. Waste is the operative word here. She asserts that prohibiting an income tax would “inevitably”..result in “raising other taxes”.  There is absolutely nothing inevitable here except in the mind of someone who wants government to have even more tax dollars to spend (and waste).  A N.H. budget where waste and misspent money is eliminated would be smaller not “inevitably” bigger. All too often, we don’t get good value for our money now so why on earth would we want to make it possible for the leviathan (its for your own good don’cha ya know) of government to grab more?
