Life and career

Alciere is a self-employed webmaster.^[3]

In 2000, Alciere was elected to the New Hampshire House of Representatives along with David E. Cote and Mary J. Gorman in the general election for the Hillsborough 29th district. He defeated Democratic incumbent Alphonse A. Haettenschwiller by just 55 votes.^[4]

Shortly after Alciere's election to the house, he received backlash for endorsing the murder of police officers in numerous online posts, including one that read "nobody will ever be safe until the last cop is dead." Alciere resigned from the House on January 11, 2001, just over a month into his term.^[5][6]

A perennial candidate, Alciere has run for office over a dozen times since 1992, with his only victory being the aforementioned 2000 state house election.^[7]
