FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

ANNOUNCEMENT OF MANCHESTER, NH NEWS CONFERENCE

ATTENTION NATIONAL, POLITICAL, NEW HAMPSHIRE DAYBOOK & ASSIGNMENT EDITORS

Republican U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin lunches attack ads calling Scott Brown “the most corrupt statewide candidate in New Hampshire history.”

Andy launches “Brown Week” with a focus on Brown’s corruption and conflicts of interest

“Brown is the successor to Eric Cantor,” Andy says.

(Manchester, NH) (June 17, 2014) 

Dear Republican:

The filing period for federal campaigns is now closed. The candidate list for U. S. Senate primary is now fixed. And what a bizarre situation you face:

Candidate #1. The “front runner,” Scott Brown, is boycotting the primary campaign and failing to appear at joint campaign forums.

Candidate #2. “Rip Van Winkle” Rubens is trying to stage a comeback after ignoring politics for the past sixteen years. Rubens, a successful Wall Street stock speculator, appears to believe public offices are bought and sold like shares of stock. A lot has changed in the sixteen years since Rubens was politically active. Next week we will feature “Rubens Week,” exposing why Jim is not a credible opponent for Scott Brown. (Full disclosure: I like Jim and feel he is a decent fellow. He’s just not ready for prime time against Jeanne Shaheen.)

Candidate #3. Bob Smith is running a brilliant campaign - for 1996. Smith still believes voters in New Hampshire are focused on gay marriage and abortion. Smith’s only role in the campaign is to give old age a bad reputation and to make Jim Rubens appear like a spring chicken by comparison. Smith is an embarrassment to “fiscal and social conservatives.” (please see link below)

Candidate #4. Yup, I put myself in fourth place out of respect for the senior citizens that claim they are running ahead of me. But the liberal media, including WMUR and the Union Leader ("Union Follower?"), deny that I exist at all. Scott Brown-style, they are “boycotting” my campaign. There hasn’t been this much “pretend” in the media since they claimed Barack Obama represented hope and change. Do they believe if they ignore me I will disappear? Fat chance.

Other than Brown, I am the only candidate with a national profile, except in the eyes of New Hampshire’s childish and petty media. WMUR and the “Union Follower” are embarrassments to New Hampshire.

Ironically, I am the only candidate who is actually running a primary campaign against Scott Brown. Rubens is mired in his own memories of politics in the 1990's, and Smith has lost his memory, except for opposition to abortion and gay marriage. Neither Rubens nor Smith is remotely credible against Jeanne Shaheen.

Today I am announcing “Brown Week.” All week long we will be focused on Scott Brown’s corruption and conflicts of interest. In my opinion, Brown is the most corrupt statewide candidate in New Hampshire history.

So why am I the only credible opponent to Scott Brown? Because I am following the Nashua Telegraph’s Kevin Landrigan’s game plan, without realizing it was Landrigan's approach as well as my own. If you read nothing else in this campaign, read Landrigan’s remarks in the June 16th Nashua Telegraph (please see link below).

Here’s what Landrigan says about Smith:

It’s up to Smith to turn this into a bigger event by engaging in an all-out assault of GOP Senate front-runner Scott Brown.

Amazingly, Smith and Testerman went through an entire, celebratory press conference last Friday without even mentioning Brown by name.

While Landrigan is writing about Smith, not me, since I may not exist in Landrigan’s world either, what Landrigan has to say mirrors my campaign over the past several months. I am focused on defeating Brown.

We are relaunching my campaign with an aggressive ad exposing Scott Brown as “the most corrupt statewide candidate in New Hampshire history.” Say what you want about me, I am actually campaigning against Brown, unlike Smith and Rubens. Smith claims to be a “conservative” candidate but he is really the “drum” candidate, banging the same old drums that have repeatedly been rejected by Republican primary voters (in 2002 in Smith’s case, when they voted him out of office) and by general election voters over the past two decades.

Not to showcase Landrigan and forget the “Union Follower” newspaper, the “Follower” had a front page story Monday announcing that Brown is missing in action. My candidacy was just plain missing in the Union Follower. But, seriously, has anyone actually seen Scott Brown in New Hampshire recently? Is Brown still in Las Vegas with his hedge fund honchos?

Likewise, Republican leaders who are unanimously supporting Brown have tried to undermine my campaign by pretending I don’t exist. (They know who Brown’s real opponent is, me.)

Well, Republicans are about to reap what they sow. On Wednesday, there will apparently be a “debate” between Rubens and Smith and no one else. I am sure that pair will attract a large audience. By trying kill off my campaign the liberal media are killing off their own campaign coverage. Who really wants to hear what Rubens and Smith have to say? If Rubens and Smith had any brains they would refuse to appear at “debates” unless I was also invited. But they don’t have any brains so they will “debate” only each other.

OK, so if you receive these remarks by email, I have attached a copy of the new ad that is being broadcast all over New Hampshire. Do listen. And then ask yourself: who is really campaigning against Scott Brown? If you don’t believe me, just ask Kevin Landrigan. He agrees with me. No one ever won a “race” against an opponent by standing still.

As usual, we welcome your comments, reactions, thoughts. But please don’t tell me a candidate’s weaknesses should not be exposed in a primary. Republicans are masters of ignoring the weaknesses of their candidates in primary campaigns, and then reacting in shock when Democrats drag out the dirty linen in November.


Loyally,

Andy

Andy Martin lawsuit charges University of New Hampshire with issuing fixed and rigged campaign polls

Friday the 13th Republican U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin will file suit against the University of New Hampshire charging that university officials acted, combined and conspired to issue polls that were fixed and rigged in advance in the 2014 Republican U. S. Senate primary. “New Hampshire is rapidly becoming the Peyton Place of American politics, where dirty tricks and political fraud are accepted as a matter of course,” Andy charges. “Both the Union Leader and WMUR television station, owed by the Hearst family, importuned University of New Hampshire officials to create polls that were fixed and rigged in advance to undermine my campaign for the U. S. Senate. Our democracy is imperiled when state institutions are used by private companies as part of a perverted and demented scheme to ‘fix’ a senate primary to defeat an ‘anti-establishment’ candidate who has the experience and capability to start cleaning up the mess in Washington.”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Republican U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin charges the University of New Hampshire with civil rights violations

Andy charges that university officials acted, combined and conspired with the Union Leader and WMUR television station to issue polls that were fixed and rigged in advance

(Manchester, NH) (June 13, 2014) 

Dear Republican:

Friday morning I will file suit against the University of New Hampshire (UNH) for committing federal civil rights violations against my campaign for the U. S. Senate.

Once the lawsuit has been accepted by the clerk of court, I will send out a copy for your review.

This action comes with a heavy heart. Both my mother and Uncle Bill Vasiliou are UNH graduates. I was a regular visitor to the campus in the 1950’s and 60’s; only a football injury changed the course of my college education. So I am very sad to have to charge UNH with seeking to destroy my campaign.

Why did UNH officials violate the law?

UNH operates a “Survey Center” where they conduct polls for themselves and for private organizations. As a state university, UNH is a “state actor.” That means that as an agency of state government the university may not engage in dirty tricks, fraud or misrepresentation. Justice Cardozo stated the matter succinctly when he said: “[The state] is held to a higher standard than the morals of the marketplace.”

The Union Leader newspaper and WMUR have decided to destroy my campaign for the U. S. Senate. There are many reasons for the paper’s and station’s hostility. In order to stay in business the Union Leader covers up local corruption. I am a nationally-recognized corruption fighter and investigator. WMUR is owned by the powerful Hearst family which has a long history of journalistic fraud.

The station and paper have tried to “erase” me from the 2014 election. They have announced “debates” from which I will be excluded while they are inviting “patsy” candidates as “sparring partners” for their preferred stooge, Scott Brown. They don’t want Scott Brown to face a nationally-known, highly experienced opponent.

WMUR and the Union Leader got UNH to issue “polls” that were fixed and rigged in advance to exclude any possibility that my name would appear in the polls. I wrote to the Survey Center director, Andrew Smith, and he declined to deny my accusations. The law permits an individual and a court to draw an “adverse inference” from a situation where someone should produce evidence or deny illegal action, and remains silent.

And so we are headed to court in a truth-seeking effort to stop New Hampshire from becoming the Peyton Place of American politics. “Drive-by voting” in which out of state voters register on Election Day, vote, and then disappear has become a statewide scandal.

Millions of dollars are being dumped into this state by a Chicago billionaire and others to buy a senate seat for Scott Brown. Likewise, California millionaires are trying to keep a senate seat in Jeanne Shaheen’s hands. Why? Because Brown and Shaheen are for sale in Washington. Using the accustomed protocols of Washington politics, Brown’s and Shaheen’s votes are for sale.

After serving only a short time in Washington, Brown became a wealthy man. He received $1.3 million in stock for what was almost a bribe, supposedly to “perform” a do-nothing, no show “job.” Shaheen and her husband have an elaborate system designed to insulate her from pay-to-play accusations. The system in Washington stinks. I am committed to fighting corruption the same way I have battled public and political corruption since I was a young law school graduate fighting organized crime.

You should protest that your vote is being devalued by out-of-state fixers that have even managed to get UNH officials to participate in fixed and rigged polls, all focused on one goal, making a mockery of the 2014 election by defeating my campaign.

Your vote counts. Don’t let them steal it from you with rigged polls and an endless barrage of phony TV commercials.

Loyally,

Andy

P.S. Please do the right thing. Open your mind. Consider voting for me in the primary. You’ll be proud you did.
