way to go, New Hampshire!!!
....well, for 20 minutes. The legislature passed, thanks to 28 Republicans crossing the aisle and voting with all the Dems, a bill resolving to remove unlimited money from election cycles. Then the leadership of the House GOP demanded a reconsideration, the voting machines failed, for the first time in anyone's memory, for 20 minutes and they re-voted. The measure then failed. Way to go, Republicans, we can now all see how democracy isn't on your agenda.

Re: way to go, New Hampshire!!!
New Hampshire has the wildest legislature imaginable. If I recall, it is one of the largest deliberative bodies on the planet. They are all part time and paid badly, so beholden to local and state party political jobs back home. Fun bunch to watch in action.
