Replies(6) State and local police confront protesters outside the Newfields home of New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu on Dec. 28. (Chris Maidment) Newfields police used a controversial new ordinance to ticket protesters gathered outside Gov. Chris Sununu's home Monday night. They also ticketed an NHJournal reporter covering the event, despite being repeatedly informed that he was a journalist on the job. Monday morning, NHJournal broke the story of the Newfields Select Board passing an ordinance banning picketing at private residences. According to minutes of a December 8th meeting, the ordinance was a response to weeks of peaceful protests against the governor's statewide mask mandate by opponents outside Sununu's Newfields home.
