NHDP has brief run in with democracy!
Alex Lee, Concord Democratic Committee Chair speaks on one of his proposed resolutions. Alex put up many reasonable resolutions at the convention on Saturday. Most amounted to nothing more then suggests but as you can see by the look on Jane Clemons face [right of Lee] most met with derision and resistance from party heads. The Democratic Party Delegates were much more receptive to Lee and many times voted AGAINST the state committees recommendation to pass his resolutions. Several shouting matches erupted as party leaders, particularly Clemons, repeated violated convention rules and rules of order. Often not allowing delegates to speak or generally causing confusion.
