This week -- we'll take a look at the state budget - it's finally a done deal. We'll find out what that means to you and me. And presidential politics - the candidates, the democratic debate, and more.
Joining me this week from the statehouse in Concord are Norma Love of the Associated Press and Kevin Landrigan of the Telegraph. Thank you both for being here. And joining me in the studio Edith Tucker of the Coos County Democrat and Jeff Feingold of the New Hampshire Business Review.
script iconIntro State Budget
Return to index of stories...
Well it's official. The state of New Hampshire has a budget that has been approved by the House, Senate and Governor. In June, Governor Benson vetoed the original state budget passed by the legislature, saying it spent too much money. The legislature and governor worked out a compromise this summer - which actually spends more than the original budget. But it's also supposed to put about $50 million into the rainy day fund.
Here are some highlights from Thursday.

The nine democratic presidential candidates were minus one at last night's televised debate. Bad weather kept Al Sharpton from travelling to New Mexico. Most of the candidate's attacks were aimed at President Bush.
Any big winners or losers?
