NHGOP wants an investigation into illegal push poll that targeted Kelly Ayotte
New Hampshire Republican senatorial candidate Kelly Ayotte has recently been the target of push polling. Push polling is illegal in New Hampshire and when Kelly Ayotte’s Republican primary opponents were asked if they were involved in the push poll they all vehemently denied they had anything to do with the poll.
That leaves just one other person whose campaign might have been conducting this push poll, the lone Democrat vying for the seat that is being vacated by retiring Republican senator Judd Gregg– Paul Hodes. When asked if his campaign was responsible for the push poll, Paul Hodes campaign stated:
We don’t comment on the specific timing or content of any market research we conduct
There was no outright denial by the Hodes campaign. In fact the statement released by the campaign reaffirms my belief that Paul Hodes was in fact the candidate behind this poll. They are not denying this poll took place, but they seem to be defending it by saying that this poll was not a push poll, but rather market research.
The New Hampshire GOP is calling this a push poll, while the Hodes campaign is denying it took part in a push poll, but confirming that they were involved in market research. While the Hodes campaign will not confirm that their market research was done in the same timeframe as the push poll, it seems clear to me that the Hodes campaign is being ambiguous for a reason; the Hodes campaign was behind the poll in question here, they just differ on the issue as to whether this was a push poll or not.
The NHGOP is now asking the New Hampshire Attorney General to investigate the Hodes campaign— a move that the campaign calls “frivolous.” In my opinion this is not a frivolous lawsuit but a necessary one. If the Hodes campaign has done nothing wrong they should welcome the challenge, but if the Hodes campaign is guilty they should be held accountable.
The residents of New Hampshire need to know if the person who wants to represent them in the senate would stoop to this level just to get elected. There appears to be a fine line here between market research and push polling, we just need to let the courts decide if that line was crossed.

My my my,
Didn’t I state in a previous post of yours that, “There’s no doubt that the Democrats will utilize their illegal activities yet again in the November election, to try to keep their seats……… Mark my word, it will happen.”
Every state that has an election this November, will need to be scrutinized and verified by and independent agency. It must be done, gotta watch those slimy corrupt democrats! Yes, they will claw their way to victory, and use any means legal or not to keep their power.

A serviceman named Will Veckert from Texas was posted to the Pacific in WW2 and spent a few months in New Zealand. I have some glorious old photos of this gentleman and his friends and will be posting them on my (almost defunct) blog. Please excuse this off topic posting.
(The photos have come my way via one of Mr Veckerts NZ friends – now an old lady in her 80’s who graciously allowed me to view her photograph album, and is aware that I will be making this posting.)

Its starting to look like the Democrats see such tactics as their only path to victory in many of the upcoming contest! I expect to see much more in the coming days.
