I am referencing TomC's headline "i understand seasonal residents can't vote (in NH)" in regards to your statement. You state your understanding as "lakefront property owners who do not live there full time have no voting privileges".

All I am saying is that I am not "seasonal". I am there at least 48 weeks (I would consider that "full time", some may not) out of 52 weeks a year, pay the same taxes, do not send children to schools and do NOT have the right to vote.

Some think that if peeps are not there full time (7 days/week ?) that we are considered "seasonal". I do not deny that there are "seasonals", but to me, I am at my place as least 3 nights straight every week out of a year...I do not consider that "seasonal" but some may and I do not have a right to vote.
