In Governor Gridlock Maggie Hassan’s announcement video, she brags that she "held the line against an income or sales tax. We balanced the budget." However, New Hampshire has a law requiring a balanced budget.

So, we were wondering… **if Governor Gridlock was willing to take credit for following that law, what laws could *you* brag about following?**

We put together a list of things you could just as easily take credit for achieving:

1) Thanks to Governor Gridlock, you could take credit for **stopping at stop signs!**

You can take complete credit for keeping the roads safe by stopping at a stop sign. Even though it’s already a law, feel free to tout your strong record of braking at these important road signs.

2) Thanks to Governor Gridlock, you could take credit for **paying taxes!**

Did you pay taxes this year? Way to go! You can take total credit for paying taxes and making a contribution to the United States government. We’re sure you would’ve paid them even if it *wasn’t* a federal crime not to.

3) Thanks to Governor Gridlock, you could take credit for **not stealing someone else’s identity!**

Not participating in identity theft is something people should be proud of – even if there *is* a law against it! If you’ve never committed identity theft, be sure to brag to *all* your friends about your bold anti-identity theft stance.

4) Thanks to Governor Gridlock, you could take credit for **crossing at crosswalks!**

It takes true bravery to cross in a crosswalk. If you’ve followed this law, you definitely have bragging rights to your staunch opposition to jaywalking. Despite clear jaywalking laws, you’ll still get all the credit!

5) Thanks to Governor Gridlock, you could take credit for **gravity.**

Every time you jump and come back down, you’re following the *Law of Gravity.* It may be science, but why not take complete credit for it? If Governor Gridlock can take credit for following laws, you should, too!
