LTE: Forsythe is the One

(From the Laconia Citizen 7/22)

I am writing to strongly urge voters in NH Senate District 4 (Alton, Barnstead, Belmont, Gilford, Gilmanton, Laconia, New Durham, Strafford and Tilton) to vote for Jim Forsythe in the Sept 14th Republican Primary.

As a former State Representative and NH Public Utilities Commissioner, I know firsthand how complicated the issues that are dealt with in Concord can be. Jim has what it takes not only to understand but to resolve these issues. He has a PHD in Aerospace Engineering, is a former Air Force Officer where he served as a pilot and a professor and has successfully run his own business.

As a fellow resident of Strafford, I have worked with Jim in his capacity as the Chair of the Strafford Taxpayers Association. He has shown he is willing to put in the time to understand the problems facing towns like Strafford and to work hard to find solutions.

Jim realizes we must take back our state from the big spending, nanny state liberals who are now in charge. He knows we simply cannot continue the double digit increases in spending without new large tax increases. Once in the Senate, Jim will work to decrease state spending and the size and reach of the state government while fighting any and all new taxes.

Jim understands the concerns with ever growing government are not limited to just tax increases but also include the loss of freedoms. He will work to stop the state intrusions and controls into areas where it just does not belong. He is a strong supporter of the Second Amendment to both the US and state constitutions and will make sure that all law abiding citizens of NH will not have their right to keep and bear arms infringed.

This is a critical time for NH. We must stop the growth of government and the associated loss of freedom now. It is time to take our state back. I know no better way of doing that than to elect Jim Forysthe to the Senate. So please join me on Sept 14th in voting for Jim Forsythe for Sate Senate from District 4.

Hon. Michael Harrington
