2022 NH Governor's race: on Principles & Values


Karen Testerman: Slogan: Together We Can Make New Hampshire Great Again

Meanwhile, Ms. Testerman charges the governor's policies on the coronavirus "brought about the destruction of small businesses and hurt our families"--an echo of the approach that State Sen. Doug Mastriano used in his successful campaign for the GOP gubernatorial nomination in Pennsylvania last month. Indeed, Ms. Testerman's website argues, "We must decide whether we are a free state," a statement itself with echoes of Mr. Mastriano's plea for Pennsylvanians to "walk as free people." It will not go unnoticed that one of her slogans is "Together We Can Make New Hampshire Great Again." The themes that have animated Trump supporters nationally are in the air here.

Karen Testerman: We've got to put God back in our country again

[On religion]: "We've got to put God back in our country again--this country was founded on God and it's the reason we have had the longest constitutional administration, longer than any country," Testerman said. "The reason I'm running for governor is we've got to get our home first taken care of."

Karen Testerman: BSA changing sexual orientation policy leads to atheism

Additionally, boys who join the Boy Scouts of America pledge their "duty to God and my country." Asking the Boy Scouts of America to change its policy on sexual orientation will eventually lead to a challenge to its belief in God. Some atheist leaders have already said they will pursue this.

Karen Testerman: Signed letter declaring state government illegitimate

A small group of Republican state representatives have signed onto a "termination of the state" document that declares New Hampshire's government illegitimate and says the November election was void. In total, 37 people signed the document, including Karen Testerman, a conservative who launched an unsuccessful primary challenge against Sununu earlier this year.
