Talk:John Lynch (New Hampshire governor)

message: I know John Lynch is a superhero to some, but how - in this recent edit - did he manage to get an award in APRIL, 2006 for his super work during the MAY, 2006 floods, which began on May 11, 2006? (wikitext cited to show dates):
:In April 2006, Lynch was awarded the National Chairman of Volunteers Award for Volunteer Excellence by the American Red Cross, mainly due to his leadership during the 2005 and 2006 New Hampshire Floods. - Nhprman List 23:46, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ha! Good point. I took that out - the award was for the fall 2005 floods only - and the cell phone mention, which fell over the border into p.r., methinks. - DavidWBrooks 23:54, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Lynch a time traveller? Or just so good he earns awards in ADVANCE? 

message: I have added results of the election 2006.  If anyone can find a source backing up the "record margin" it would be appreciated.  I put it here based on reports by WMUR — Preceding unsigned comment added by Log'a'log (talk • contribs) 04:11, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Election 2006 results

message: I was baffled by the plus-or-minus percentage heading in the just-added infoboxes about election results; I finally figured that it's a completely meaningless figure comparing the percentage point results of a candidate to their percentage point result of the previous election (assuming they ran then). I would strongly recommend that it be removed, because it says nothing (what does his result against Coburn, a newcomer, have to do with the result against Benson, an incumbent?) and is extremely confusing - most people will see it as the percentage difference between the two candidates in that race. Toss it, I say. - DavidWBrooks 02:01, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: David, I agree that it's confusing - I actually wandered to the talk page to try to figure out the column's significance. It's part of the template, though, so it's out of my league. :) Jodamn 23:48, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  +-% 

message: Let me say that I think it's b.s., and I don't appreciate (or accept as legitimate) the fact that the public, official photograph of Gov. Lynch, along with simliar photos of past governors, has been removed by the little dicatators who are running Wikipedia and turning it into a bland, colorless, photoless place. They only seem to like photos if "fan" photos are used on every page, which makes it look like a cheap fan site. For the record: Public, government-taken photos are IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN. - Nhprman 20:15, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Photo-less

message: I think it's better for there to be no photo rather than the current one which looks like a mug shot.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 161.253.53.74 (talk) 00:19, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: That photo actually inspired me to create an account so I could eventually replace it with a better one, if possible.  I was a photographer at events Lynch attended in Plymouth and New Hampton earlier this year and would gladly submit one for his page. Aldran (talk) 21:08, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Photo 

message: Did he go to Georgetown or George Washington University???  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.164.100.93 (talk) 15:26, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Where did he go to school? 

message: According to reference [1] in the article, Lynch is the 80th governor of N.H., not 90th.  I even contacted the governor's office and they said he was the 80th.  I don't know how this reconciles with List of Governors of New Hampshire.  Someone is not counting right.  mg (talk) 10:20, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Fixed. 80 is correct. The List of Governors of New Hampshire got up to 90 because it counted the same person several times if he served non-contiguous terms.--Ken Gallager (talk) 19:05, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
