A | CONCORD, N.H. -- The New Hampshire presidential primary filing period starts Wednesday, a ritual unruffled by either a changing of the guard or changes to the nominating calendar elsewhere.For the first time in more than four decades, candidates will file paperwork with a new secretary of state thanks to the retirement last year of longtime elections chief Bill Gardner. But his successor, David Scanlan, is carrying on the tradition of ensuring New Hampshire remains first, waiting for the dust to settle in other states before scheduling the 2024 contest.“I’m really in no hurry,” he said in an interview Tuesday.In contrast, the candidates themselves — particularly the longshots — often are in a race to sign up first in hopes that a bit of media attention will boost their campaigns. In 1991, a writer from New York drove 11 hours in a snowstorm only to find another perennial candidate waiting at the door. In 2007, a Minnesota fugitive living in Italy sent a package by courier that arrived just before an ex-convict embarked on a 90-minute rant that included five costume changes.Current candidates have until Oct. 27 to sign up, and dozens are expected to do in part because it’s relatively cheap and easy. They need only meet the basic requirements to be president, fill out a one-page form and pay a $1,000 filing fee.In 2020, 33 Democrats and 17 Republicans signed up. The all-time high was 1992, when 61 people got on the ballot. But this cycle could be notable instead for whose name isn’t on the ballot.New Hampshire, with its state law requiring its primaries to be held first, is defying the Democratic National Committee’s new primary calendar which calls for South Carolina to kick off voting on Feb. 3, followed by New Hampshire and Nevada. The shakeup came at the request of President Joe Biden in a bid to empower Black and other minority voters crucial to the party’s base.Biden’s campaign won’t comment on whether he will be on the ballot in New Hampshire. But he wouldn’t be the first reelection-seeking incumbent missing from the primary ballot: President Lyndon Johnson won the 1968 Democratic primary as a write-in, though a shockingly strong-second place showing by Sen. Eugene McCarthy helped push him out of the race.Scanlan, who served as deputy secretary of state for 20 years, said he was excited to welcome candidates starting Wednesday. Like his predecessor, he plans to greet them with a few encouraging words, but don’t expect the obscure trivia Gardner often added.“I don’t have any history lessons planned,” Scanlan said. “That was Bill’s style, and he was really, really good at it.”。

C | Advertise with us Guardian 集团在 Remuera 路 405 至 415 号（被称为“Village Green”）建造五个大型展馆，供餐厅以及零售店。
D | 他们聘请了约克项目公司 （一家成立近 20年的老牌建筑项目公司）的 Simon Church 来监督建设。 Kirsten Lummis 法官在裁决中指出，双方都知道在 17 个月的建设过程中并未获得建设许可。 事实上，他们已收到三项拒绝申请的决定。然而，Church 发给另一位承包商的短信显示，他不会让合规问题阻止开发进度。 “议会仍然在玩愚蠢的许可把戏。我们正在继续推进 P3 布线和外墙，不要停止，”一条消息称。“如果有必要，我们会在法庭上辩论。我们需要拍摄大量照片并将它们归档命名，不要遗失它们。” 果然，此事提交给了奥克兰地区法审理，但法庭作出了对市议会有利的裁决。
E | Church 的律师 Leighton Cox 认为，这些短信应该被视为“沮丧”而不是“傲慢”。 他说，由于解决防火隔离问题花费了意想不到的时间，情况如滚雪球般远远超出了项目公司一开始的预期。
F | 但是，Lummis 法官表示 Church 的态度“傲慢”。“存在的风险是，如果法院判处较弱的处罚，其他开发商可能会试图绕过建筑许可程序，转而采用验收证书程序，以实现更快的竣工和其他商业效率。
G | ” “鉴于这是一个耗资数百万纽币的项目，罚款必须是有意义的。”最终 Church 被罚款 27,500 纽币，他的公司又被罚款 27,500 纽币，总计 55,000 纽币。 承包商 The Carpentry Co 被罚款 19,500 纽币，其董事 Damien Baker 和 Svend Johannsen 各被罚款 13,000 纽币。 Lummis 不接受 Guardian Group 关于他们是投资者而不是开发商的说法，并称他们的行为“粗心”，并对其处以 32,500 纽币的罚款。 奥克兰市议会调查负责人 David Pawson 表示，建筑许可“不仅仅是一张纸”，而是建筑正确建造的保证。 “我们必须向建筑行业发出一个信号，表明他们不能继续以这种方式运营，”他说。 非法建筑工程从 2020 年 11 月开始至 2022 年 4 月，历时 17 个月。 原文链接 相关阅读： 新西兰建房许可大幅下降，而建筑成本正在放缓 新西兰新房建筑面积在过去十年缩小了近三分之一 新建房和买旧房的成本差距创出历史最高！投资者们将何去何从？ 建筑业降温，新西兰新房获批量越来越少...... 注：凡引用、摘录或转自其他媒体的作品， 本网对其观点、真实性和知识产权恕不负责。致力于帮助文章传播，希望能够与作者建立长期合作关系。若有任何问题请联系[email protected]。 chineseherald.co.nz All Rights Reserved 版权所有 (责编：Peter) 相关内容 无语！奥克兰抢劫累犯强奸女生！法官这样判决…… 新西兰废除2条重要政策！总理被催讨退钱…… 交通部门透露：将在全国范围内安装更多摄像头 今天凌晨，奥克兰四名青少年开着两辆偷来的车逃逸，已被警方逮捕 夏天什么时候能到？本周末和假期里的天气好坏参半 8.2亿纽币新冠工资补贴已退还，39人被送上法庭，一男子被判入狱两年多 这个夏季假期，交通和天气好像都不那么妙…… 今天清晨，奥克兰北岸一栋在建的三层楼房被可疑的大火烧毁。
