Wheeling and dealing Senator Bragdon cops a plea bargain and cuts a deal taking representation away from his constituents so that he doesnt have to face remaining Ethic charges.
The fact that the Ethics Panel allowed Senator Bragdon to throw his constituents under the bus and take away their representation instead of having him face a public hearing on whether it was inappropriate for him to take his 180K job makes me question the Ethics Panel as much as I question Senator Bragdon.
Why the Ethics Ppanel would not hold a hearing if they thought the charges merited it, makes me think members on the Ethics Panel care more about Senator Bragdons ability to vote on future Medicaid legislation more then they care about Ethics.
So we now have a partial Senator representing our district, resulting in our district being unrepresented on many important votes. If he cant do his Senate job to its full capacity he should take his 180K salary and leave the Senate. Another example of a politician putting himself first over the people
Bottom Line Bragdon 1, Ethics Committe 1 and the people of NH-0
