To the editor:

New Hampshire is a large net exporter of electricity to the rest of New England. Meaning our state produces too much electricity and has been for decades. So, if we produce too much electricity why are our electrical rates skyrocketing as much as 50% this year?

All the proposed electricity from Wind Turbines and Northern Pass is not needed to keep one light bulb on in the state of New Hampshire. It's all being shipped to southern states. So, why are paying higher electrical prices to ship it to them?

We all cherish New Hampshire's natural landscape and the economy it supports. We must now protect ourselves from those trying to destroy our landscape and start looking out for everything that depends on it.

Do your own research on which politician's are pushing this energy policy down our throats and vote them all out in November. You're electrical bill, your landscape and your NH way of life is at stake.
