Republican Gov. Kelly Ayotte was nowhere to be seen during Friday’s visit to the New Hampshire State House by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Donald Trump’s controversial Secretary of Health and Human Services.

Her office declined to comment on why the governor did not appear alongside Kennedy or acknowledge his visit in any public capacity.

One possible reason? The visit came one day after new polling from the University of New Hampshire Survey Center found Granite Staters overwhelmingly blame Trump for the state’s surging gas prices.

Colin Booth has the full story.

🏥 In the North Country, a state investigation has found governance failures at one of the region’s largest healthcare systems …

The New Hampshire Attorney General’s Charitable Trust Unit concluded that North Country Healthcare breached its fiduciary duties when it removed the president of Weeks Medical Center and failed to recruit a permanent replacement. The organization has agreed to reforms that include hiring an independent governance consultant, holding quarterly public listening sessions, and providing additional board training.

☀️ Meanwhile, the future of community solar projects in New Hampshire remains uncertain as lawmakers continue debating net metering policies …

Supporters say a pending bill would provide more certainty for municipal solar projects already in development by extending net metering eligibility, while critics argue the system can shift costs to other utility customers. Renewable energy advocates warn ongoing uncertainty could slow future solar investment across the state. New Hampshire Bulletin

🗳️ And New Hampshire voters will soon see one of the biggest changes to the state’s election calendar in decades …

Starting in 2028, New Hampshire’s state primary will move from September to June, giving candidates five months instead of two between the primary and general election. New Hampshire Bulletin

🏖️ Finally, beachgoers heading to the Seacoast this summer may find it a little harder to score free parking …

The town of Rye has approved a new parking ordinance that restricts parking on several roads near local beaches, including areas around Jenness State Beach. Town officials say the changes are intended to improve safety and traffic flow, while some residents and visitors worry the restrictions will make parking even more challenging during the busy summer season.

This week, we asked readers: Has this economy changed your summer vacation plans?

Here’s what they had to say…

“Well, yes in a way. We bought an electric car and solar array because of the Trump factor on fuel prices and uncertainty. It is immediately our primary vehicle and shall be used for nearby vacations.” — Tom Chew

“Being 86 years old with the usual accompanying health issues, I stay at home now. However, the changes in travel conditions due to increased fuel costs, the general atmosphere of paranoia, and the confusion surrounding international travel regulations would prevent me from considering any type of travel at this time, even if I was able and could afford it.” — JoAnn Carlson

Starting in 2028, New Hampshire’s state primary will move from September to June after years of bipartisan efforts to change one of the nation’s latest primary dates. Supporters say the earlier primary will give candidates more time to campaign before the general election, while critics worry a summer election could lead to lower voter turnout.

So this week’s question is:

How do you feel about New Hampshire’s primary moving from September to June?

By Sam Cohen

Aug. 30, 2015, progressed like any other Sunday for 62-year-old Denise Robert. An avid fitness fanatic, she exercised at the Executive Health Club in Manchester that evening until 6 p.m. From there, she stopped briefly to pick up vitamins at a store on South Willow Street before going to Walmart and then to Hannaford Supermarket. Security footage showed Denise leaving the Hannaford’s on John Devine Drive at 8:21 p.m. 

Roughly 39 minutes later, she was found dead from a single gunshot wound on Ray Street in the city’s North End.
