CONCORD – State House Democrats are asking Republican leaders to meet remotely Jan. 6 with secure voting online or a hybrid that would allow those who feel safer at home during the pandemic rather than the “drive-in” plan being promoted by the new majority.
State Rep. Kenneth Snow, D-Manchester, said he did not want to become the “Typhoid Mary” of the Birch Hill retirement community where he lives, and where outside movement due to COVID-19 has limited his ability to go in and out.
Snow, 81, in his fourth term, lives with his handicapped wife, age 79, at the retirement community. He said he does not want anyone to come to his car window with a microphone, which would be shared by other speakers, and likely be closer than six feet.
