This is why the differance between the online poll and the obove mention poll.
66% not in favor any added speed limit.
BTW they never seem to call me.
Why should the opinions of boat owners be more important than the average voter? The citizens of NH own the lakes and they ultimately decide what happens to it.

How happy would you be if a group decided to seek legislation to prevent Island dwellings, to use eminent domain to return the Islands to their nature state, before people built upon them?

And then, use polls similar to the ones you quote; because "the citizens of NH own the lakes and they ultimately decide what happens to it."

After all, Why should the opinions of island owners be more important than the average voter?
