Democrats (41% support, 42% oppose) are divided.<\/p>\n<p>It is also noteworthy that the Secretary State supports SB 179 as do 65% of union households. A very diverse group of NH citizens across party lines support this Bill.   <\/p>\n<p>Currently, 47 states and the District of Columbia require a citizen to be either a resident, or to be registered to vote, or both, for some period of time before voting. <\/p>\n<p>Voter residency or registration requirements of 20 days or more are in place in 40 states, and 27 of those require 30 days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A 30 day voter residency requirement is a common sense law in 27 states.<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>It should be so in New Hampshire as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Granite State Taxpayers urges you to vote to override the Governor&#8217;s veto of SB 179. <\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Best regards,<\/p>\n<p>Jim Adams, Chairman<br \/>\nGranite State Taxpayers<br \/>\nSeptember 2, 2015<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/granitestatetaxpayers.org\/gst\/2015\/08\/17\/majority-support-a-voter-residency-requirement\/\" target=\"_blank\">Click here for further information and analysis.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chairman Jim Adams is sending the following letter to New Hampshire Senate and House members.
