Stacie Marie Laughton, a Democrat, made history this month when she was elected to a seat in the New Hampshire House of Representatives from Hillsborough County, which includes Nashua. But a story in the Laconia Daily Sun revealed that Laughton was a convicted felon who served more than four months in jail for ”conspiracy to commit credit card fraud” in 2008.
Candidates can run for office in New Hampshire after they’ve been convicted of a felony as long as they are not incarcerated and have completed any court-ordered sentence, according to the New Hampshire Secretary of State’s Office.

A 'lady??' Have you lost your freaking mind?
I'm confused was he a Republican or is she a Democrat?
Politicians being OFFENDED at having a felon in their midst? HA!! THEY made the laws that said it was okay!! Get that picture yet?? You or I get automatically excluded from HUNDREDS of jobs for felonious convictions, but still want to make laws for the rest of us law-abiding citizens? No problem! Want to get up close and personal with the purse strings of the people? Easy! Run for Congress or your State offices! She's not only a freak (yeah, I said it) but a criminal freak. And thinks she has the right to tell us how to live OUR lives?? Fits right in with the rest of those politicians.
the people wanted a felon in there. they voted. thats the end of it. criminal or not...they voted. they knew he/she was evil by the (D) after his/her name.
