Newly sworn-in NH House Speaker Dick Hinch dies of COVID-19 Autopsy determines cause of death to be COVID-19
CONCORD, N.H. — New Hampshire’s House Speaker Dick Hinch died Wednesday, just a week after he was sworn in as leader of the state’s newly Republican-led Legislature. He was 71.
An autopsy determined that the cause of Hinch's death was COVID-19.
Hinch, of Merrimack, was starting his seventh two-year term in the state House. He previously served as majority leader for the 2016-17 session and as minority leader when Democrats were in control the last two years. His death was announced by his office, which did not give any details of what it called “this unexpected tragedy.”
Gov. Chris Sununu ordered flags to be lowered to half-staff and said he was profoundly sad to learn of Hinch's death.
. . .
Republicans won majorities in both chambers in November. Senate President Chuck Morse, R-Salem, said he had been looking forward to serving with a colleague he considered a best friend.
. . .
Democrats, including U.S. Sen. Maggie Hassan, also expressed sadness over Hinch's death.
. . .
The swearing in of the the 400-member House and 24-member Senate was held outdoors at the University of New Hampshire because of the coronavirus pandemic. More than a quarter of House members, most of them Democrats, skipped the ceremony after learning the day before that several Republican lawmakers had tested positive for the virus after attending an indoor GOP caucus meeting Nov. 20 where many attendees weren't wearing masks.

And yet PDT lost New Hampshire. Things that make you go humm???
NH RINOs are ALL dead to me. OK with election fraud, lockstep with Massachusetts lockdowns, and not fighting Mass income tax for New Hampshire telecommuters. My flag is at full mast.
The ignorance here is pretty astounding”
He said SHOULD, so my interpretation is did your friends receive adequate early care? Were non early treatments that have proven beyond anecdotal evidence of success like HCQ / Ivermectin denied due to corrupt Bureaucrats like Fauci poo pooing them? It's a fair question.
Democrats admit there are serious consequences to their party members for collaborating with dirty, heartless, curmudgeon Republicans!
>> The ignorance here is pretty astounding.
The chance of a COVID-19 death in one’s 40s is very low. And that’s a statistical fact.
Were non early treatments that have proven beyond anecdotal evidence of success like HCQ / Ivermectin denied due to corrupt Bureaucrats like Fauci poo pooing them? It's a fair question.
Yeah, they do, but it's really okay, because...
They have been paid $200 for a two-year term since 1889.
The presiding officers of both houses of the legislature - called the General Court - receive a salary of $250, while all other members get $200 plus mileage for 45 legislative days, according to the state Constitution.
Members really clean up for a special session, during which all legislators receive an additional compensation of $3 per day “for a period not exceeding 15 days and the usual mileage.”
CIP = Covid-19 or Influenza or Pneumonia = death reported as COVID
That's my stance too.
Results of the autopsy within 24 hours of death? I call bull hockey.
Just sayin'.
No we have lots of House members - AND - we don’t pay them or give them offices.
They have to have jobs, and they have to give out their home phone numbers. Keeps ‘em close.
Live free or die.
Of course, it’s another GOP, since RATs appear to be immune.
100 dollars a year is embarrassing.
Statesmen would, politicians might, but a power addict, NEVER...
RIP.
Tell them to get lawyers and start sueing.
