GST OBJECTIVES FOR ELECTION LAW
Easy to understand and execute
Resistant to fraud
Available exclusively to citizens of New Hampshire
ISSUES WITH CURRENT ELECTION LAWS
People are able to vote without presenting any identification or proof of US citizenship.
People are able to vote without being a resident nor being domiciled in New Hampshire.
Known residents of other states are able to vote in New Hampshire and affect our elections.
Fraud cannot be proven or prosecuted because residency is subject to “changes in future plan.”
There is no process for identifying individuals who vote in two states in the same election.
The problem with current law is not some much a matter of fraud, but what is actually legal.
PROPOSED CHANGES FOR A SIMPLE, EASY TO UNDERSTAND VOTER LAW
A NH Driver License (NHDL) or Non-Driver ID (NHNDID) required for registration and for voting
Voter registration (same day or prior) only with the above documents plus proof of citizenship
Absentee ballots require Driver License number
RSA 263 and NH DMV Policy regarding Driver Licenses require proof of identify and residency.
RSA 654.7 Voter Registration: eliminate Section III regarding lack of proof of qualification
RSA 654.12 Determining Qualifications: eliminate qualified voter affidavit and domicile affidavit
Reconcile NH Constitution, case law and the RSAs regarding Domicile and Residency
Adjust RSAs to require Undeclared to register with a particular party 30 days before primary
