A New Hampshire lawmaker on Tuesday switched his party affiliation from Republican to Democrat due what he says is the Republican House leadership's anti-vaccine stance.

"I cannot stand idly by while extremists reject the reasonable precautions of vaccinations and masks," Rep. Bill Marsh of Brookfield said in a statement. "And so I have reluctantly changed my party affiliation. I urge others to consider what is happening and come to their own conclusions."

In an interview with NBC10 Boston, Marsh said the last straw was a rally held by New Hampshire House Republicans on Tuesday opposing President Joe Biden's proposed COVID-19 vaccine requirement for large companies. "They're calling for a special session to basically do the same thing (Florida Gov. Ron) DeSantis is doing in Florida," he said.

Two things:
1) good riddance
2) the internal polling is obviously showing that there is a strong pro-mandate sentiment in some areas. I don’t know what to do about that, but ignoring it is folly.

Another RINO cancels himself. May he be an example for the rest.

Bull droppings. It was his excuse but he was already a Dem in all but name.

I heard a theory which I find quite compelling. If the vaccine has bad long-term side effects that show up in a year or so, that would be obvious, if, say 20% of the country was not vaxxed. They wouldn’t be hit by the side effects. But if they can get it close to 100% vaxxed, there would be no control group. Everyone would be in the same boat. And then, when side effects hit, they could shrug and say, “What a mystery. We have no idea where these are coming from.”

That would explain the bizarre push to vax absolutely everyone.

It’s all the same party, why does switching make a difference?
