At least one reporter, Chris Maidment, occasionally of GraniteGrok.com but more recently writing for NH Journal, was on the scene (for NH Journal).

According to reporting Maidment published earlier today, spokesman Ben Vihstadt, said the Governor's Office had nothing to do with the ordinance.

I suppose that's possible. Newfields select board member Michael Sununu may not have received a jot of input on the ordinance from Chris Sununu. And we can accept that at face value except for one thing.

After months of being accused of ignoring the constitution and people's rights and liberties, are we to assume New Hampshire's Governor knew nothing of the ordinance proposed back on December 8th in his own town?
