Tuesday

Standing against the majority republican locals
Then local Dems stood up
Then the community said no
Followed by the town government
And then the NH representation in DC got ready to fight

Then our scumbag Governor went for dinner in DC and “said” she stood up for our local voices - while all along she had denied and denied and denied.

She’s now taking a victory lap.
Republicans are scum.
