Reply #6: NH is fairly conservative.

[trof]

At least in state politics, but NOTHING like Alabama.

I did like the town meeting form of local government.
Everyone gets a say and 'sometimes' it makes a difference.

I was relatively apolitical when I came back in '93.
I considered myself to be an 'independent' voter, although I've never voted for a republican.

That all changed in the 2000 'selection'.
That's when I got mad and became a yellow-dog Democrat.
Having said that, I'm not happy with what either party is doing now.
I'll still vote for Democrats as the lesser of two evils, but no more financial support.
Can't afford it now anyway.

Bottom line: "Better than Alabama"?
Maybe a little.
