FRANK GUINTA ENDORSES GRANT BOSSE FOR CONGRESS IN 00th CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT

Manchester, NH – Grant Bosse, independent journalist and former Congressional Candidate for New Hampshire’s actually existing 2nd Congressional District, today announced his candidacy for Congress in the now infamous—yet non-existing—00th District in New Hampshire.  The 00th District received a whopping amount of money from the Carol Shea-Porter backed stimulus plan.  That money reportedly created nearly 3000 jobs in that district.  1st District Congressional Candidate Frank Guinta released the following statement on his new New Hampshire colleague in Congressional Candidacy:

 “I completely endorse Grant Bosse in his candidacy for Congress in the 00th District of New Hampshire.  Grant Bosse is the one who discovered this new Congressional District, along with two other phantom districts.  That makes him more on top of the Stimulus funds than the two current Representatives we have who voted for this trillion dollar debacle.  With all those new jobs and dollars being funneled into the district, I believe it deserves representation.  I know many people will tell me that, ‘Frank, but it’s not a real place, it doesn’t exist.’ However, I would argue that if Carol Shea-Porter and her colleagues voted to divvy this trillion dollars out this way, they must be actually sending it somewhere.  The district may be phantom, but the dollars the taxpayers funded this program with are not.  So Carol Shea-Porter should either join me in endorsing Grant Bosse to represent this district, or tell us where the money went and where those jobs actually are. Or, at least admit it’s an absolute disaster that she supported.”

NRCC Expands GOP Playing Field in NH 

Major Announcement in NH’s 00 Congressional District

By Grant Bosse on November 19, 2009

http://newhampshire.watchdog.org/2009/11/major-announcement-in-nhs-00-congressional-district/

I will be making a major announcement concerning New Hampshire’s 00 Congressional District tomorrow at 11am [November 20] at the LOB in Concord. Please join us.

Since it was my story on Monday that discovered the 00 Congressional District, along with the 4th, the 6th, and the 27th, I consider myself the Christopher Columbus of New Hampshire’s Phantom Congress.

NRCC Comment: “In New Hampshire, we have more opportunities than ever before, literally.  We’re expanding our playing field to include New Hampshire’s 00 Congressional District, and we expect to have a strong candidate to run for what we think is an open seat.  We’re also considering our options in NH-04, but turnout is expected to be an unknown variable.  All kidding aside: If the stimulus bill’s countless failures have taught – a reminder to many – us anything, it’s that the government should not be in charge of your health care.” – Tory Mazzola, NRCC Spokesman

 

NOTE from the Union Leader: “…the Web page dedicated to New Hampshire's portion of the stimulus package showed most of the money went to the 1st and 2nd congressional districts, which actually do exist. But $1.4 million also went to the 6th District and more than $1 million went to the 4th District, which do not. Recovery.gov also showed funds distributed to New Hampshire's 27th and 00th congressional districts.” (Beth Lamontagne Hall, ‘Phantom’ Data Adds to GOP Stimulus Doubts, New Hampshire Union Leader, 11/19/2009)
