7. This is wonderful news. Thanks so much for finding and posting.

We sent flowers to the hospital, to the family on behalf of ourselves and everyone here at DU. This is just great news!

on edit: to anyone and everyone, if you ever have the chance/opportunity to hear her speak, don't miss it. Even if you have to drive a couple of hours.

on 2nd edit: the article was wrong, GrannyD has been an activist for a very long time. "Haddock became an activist for democracy late in life. At 89, she embarked on a cross-country walk to promote campaign finance reform."

She and her husband helped stop warheards/nukes, or something being placed in Alaska many, many years ago.

9. 34 percent of the vote isn't bad for a progressive woman in her 90s in

the relatively conservative state of New Hampshire.
