Let me apologize to the webmaster for not being as familiar as I probably should be, on posting. I can add some relevance to this thread, however.

The question of "reconsideration" on Article 2 is clear in the statute:

" IV. Upon favorable approval on the motion to reconsider the vote on a bond or note issue under paragraphs I and II, actual reconsideration of the bond issue shall not take place until the expiration of at least 7 days from the date on which the original vote on the motion was taken. Notice of time and place where such reconsideration shall take place shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the municipality at least 2 days before the reconsideration vote."


RSA 33:8-a

The motion to reconsider, itself failed. The law is clear. The moderator's rules can be overruled by a simple majority vote of the registered voters there.

The statutes, however, can not be overturned by the voters.


Unfortunately, impeaching some members of the Select Board, was not a consideration. If not impeachment, than a malfeasance claim.
