NH’s governor only has 2-year terms, so he’s only coming up on four years in office. Unfortunately, the moonbats in the legislature have veto-proof majorities, so it might not matter.

Democrats do NOT have veto proof majorities in either House of the NH Legislature. They have about 58% of each House (14-10 Senate, 266-167 House). Veto override takes 2/3s in NH.

That said I believe it’s still one of the weakest Governor positions.

DJ: “He was almost guaranteed to take out Shaheen.”

Well that’s an overstatement, he’d have been a slight favorite.

This is a great disappointment. We can’t let this bitch off the hook.
