It isn't like we have seen any public letters from the delegation speaking negatively about it.
Given the lack of a “politics” forum on winnipesaukee.com , I propose some other place for it.

I think secession is less about politics... as it really doesn't matter what party proposes it or why... and more about the effects it could have on the local area.

It isn't much different than discussing any other proposal before government.

In Texas v. White, the Supreme Court ruled unilateral secession unconstitutional, while commenting consent of the states could lead to a successful secession.

These state reps in the NH legislature have a better chance to re-litigate the July 2, 1832 to August 5, 1835 ..... Republic of Indian Stream ..... make it independent and detached from New Hampshire .... this was somewhere, way-the-heck up north .... oh wait, it already is basically independent and detached from New Hampshire ..... ......https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_of_Indian_Stream ..... and improve the trails, THERE, to make it a snowmobile & atv GO-TO spot ...... just show them that snowmobile & atv money!

www.laughingsquid.com/republic-of-Indian-Stream/ .... Republic of Indian Stream ...... video .... 4:33

From the article, "When you hear crazy knocking at the door, you slam it shut".

I wish more people thought this way.

You know, after reading this whole thread, I've come to believe that secession would be possible. I mean it's hard to imagine anyone in Washington wanting to keep NH in the union.

I don't think they would want to keep us... more we have problems without them.
