Russell Dumais: Restore Belknap County's government to its citizens

To The Daily Sun,

My name is Russell Dumais and I'm running in District 6 for the House of Representatives, which consists of Gilmanton, Gilford and Laconia Ward 2. 

Being a resident of Gilford for 54 years, I've served in a number of appointed and elected offices. Member of the Gilford Planning Board, Zoning Board of Adjustments, three-term selectboard member. Total of nine years with the Town of Gilford. Five-year Gunstock Area Commissioner. Former member of NH General Court, Commission of NH Water Supply and Pollution Control Board. Developed and built Alpine Ridge in Gilford. Taught and coached at Laconia High School for eight years. Owned and operated Airport Country Store in Gilford along with D&D Country Store in Belmont.

My goals in running for the House are very simple: I want to help remove the cloud that hangs over our county delegation, and restore Belknap County's government to its citizens. Those who have come to know me during my 54 years in the community know that I have never been afraid to speak out about what I believe, usually in a very direct fashion. If elected to the position of state representative I will continue to be outspoken not only with the Belknap County Delegation, but in Concord as well.
