Burton has bipartisan support

Raymond Burton has bipartisan support in New Hampshire's North Country, the vast region he represents as an executive councilor.

"We don't have a lot of political capital up here," said former Republican state Rep. Brien Ward of Littleton. "Burton is the one person who makes government work for the North Country, he's done it time and again.

"If we lose Ray Burton, we will become the portion of New Hampshire that time has forgotten," Ward said.

…

Jerry Sorlucco, North Country Democratic committee chairman, said Burton's decision to hire Seidensticker was unfortunate, but didn't warrant his resignation from the council. New Hampshire's congressional delegation and Gov. John Lynch have called for him to resign.

….

Former state Rep. Ned Densmore of Franconia said Burton's political struggle was due to a lack of support from Republican leadership.

…..

Ralph Doolan of Bethlehem, Grafton County Republican committee vice chairman, said he was surprised by congressional delegation and Lynch's call for Burton to resign. He said voters should be allowed to determine Burton's fate. Burton is up for re-election next year

Please please please, stay in office Ray. I want the FULL STORY to come out on you AND I want to kick your ass in the next election. Plus it will be fun to watch all those people speaking up for him play duck and cover when the "FULL STORY" comes out. I also noticed that no CURRENTLY elected officials came out for ray. Poor ray, he is all alone in his mission to reach out to repeat child molesters. Maybe he just couldn't find enough non-convicted sex offenders that were willing to work for his campaign?

If you are out of the loop on the Ray Burton Scandle get informed about the story so far here.
