We have Republican incumbent Senator Kelly Ayotte going up against Democratic Governor Maggie Hassan. First issue discussed was cyber security. Both candidates managed to speak for several minutes on this issue without ever mentioning the name of the cyber security problem, namely Windows. Any Windows computer connected to the internet can be secretly taken over, everything on its hard drive transferred to the attackers, malware emailed to every address in the victim's address book, keylogger installed to capture all the victim's passwords, and DDOS attack software installed. Plus other bad stuff.
Windows is so riddled with security holes as to be unfixable. If you want any security at all, you must run something else, Linux or Apple.
Anyhow neither senatorial candidate seemed to be aware of this.

PBVRC Spagetti Dinner
That's Pemi Baker Valley Republican Committee. PBVRC throws these dinners once a month. All you can eat. And they have speakers. Last night they had Kelly Ayotte, (Candidate for US Senate), and Chris Sununu, (Candidate for NH governor). Word had been circulated, and everyone came. The place, the Ashland VFW hall, was packed. Fortunately the air conditioning was working. Both candidates spoke well, with conviction, and to the approval of the audience. Audience was typical north country, I know many of them. The older set, lotta gray hair, a few canes. The few young folk were mostly campaign aides to the candidates. All in all, a good evening for the candidates, they pretty much picked up every vote in the place. And for us voters, the spaghetti was up to the usual standards, everyone had plenty to eat.
