On October 14, the NH Liberty Party officially nominated a presidential ticket of Dale “NOTA” Everett & Emberlea “Liberty” McCulligh. The idea was to allow voters to vote for “None of the Above” (NOTA) or “Liberty” and have those votes counted. A decision was made to select candidates to be stand-in’s for “NOTA” & “Liberty.” The NHLP’s Presidential Ticket will not be on the ballot due to New Hampshire’s strict ballot access rules. However voters will be able to cast a write-in vote for “NOTA” or “Liberty” and under State & Federal law, that vote MUST be tabulated and filed with the National Archivist.
On October 15, the slate of electors was sent via Certified Mail to the Secretary of State and emailed to the Elections Division of the Secretary of State. According to the Postal Service tracking system the certified letter “was delivered at 11:41 am on October 16, 2012 in CONCORD, NH 03301.”
The Nashua Patch & NHInsider.com have both recently published LTE’s advocating for NOTA. You can read that letter here.
Bob Robertson replaced Dale Everett on the ticket on October 19.
As most readers of FreeKeene.com are aware, two City of Keene bureaucrats invaded my domicile and violated my privacy on June 14. They were asked multiple times for an apology, none was given.
On July 2, a case was filed in small claims court seeking an apology and restitution. Judge Burke recused himself from the case and a hearing on the merits was set for October 16 at 8:29am. The attorney for the defendants filed a motion to dismiss, to which I objected. (more…)
The Cheshire County Candidates Forum was held from 2-4pm on October 16, 2012 in the Keene Public Library’s Ruth Huntress Auditorium. Twenty-seven candidates were invited, nine attended. Candidates answered questions from the moderator and the audience. A strawpoll was conducted at the end of the forum.
Surprise winners include Libertarians John Babiarz for Governor, Hardy Macia for Congress, Ian Freeman for State Rep. Cheshire 16 and Darryl W. Perry for Register of Deeds.
The initial results incorrectly listed write-in candidates for Executive Council (Richard A. Foote) & State Senate (Eli Rivera) as receiving 4 votes, each actually received 1 write-in vote.

Keene, NH – The NH Liberty Party has filed a slate of electors with the New Hampshire Secretary of State.
While 35 States currently require a declaration of intent from those wishing to be write-in candidates, New Hampshire is among the states without write-in declarations. Even though all write-in votes are considered valid, they are not always counted. (more…)
This summer I had the honor of being included in the 2012 “Talk Rumble” at the TALKERS Magazine “New Media Seminar” yearly convention in NYC. Every previous year, the participants (all talk show hosts) in the Rumble were all either from the left or right. Never before had there been someone representing the ideas of liberty. I thought you might like to see it.
The Keene Sentinel published a letter to the editor titled Vote “no” on Question 2. I thought it would be a good idea to post that letter to Free Keene, to give readers an opposing opinion to that of Brad Jardis.
As I began reading the letter, I immediately noticed a major error. One that was not noticed by the editors of the Sentinel. (more…)
