Voter ID Law -
Laws of 2012, Chapter 289
Explanatory Document
During the 2012 legislative session the legislature passed House Bill
1354, also known as the “Voter ID” Law now requires
photo identification to vote.
This explanatory document is required under the “Voter ID” law as part
of the process of educating the public about the law’s requirements and
application and outlines the law’s requirements from 2012.
What type of photo ID will I need in order to vote?
You will be asked to provide one of the following:
* Driver’s license issued by any state (even if expired);
* ID card issued by NH DMV (Division of Motor Vehicles);
* U.S. Armed Services ID card;
* U.S. Passport (even if expired);
* Valid photo ID card issued by either the federal government or a
state, county or municipal government;
* Valid student ID card
* Other photo ID deemed legitimate by the supervisors of the
checklist, the moderator, or the clerk; or
* Verification of identity by a supervisor of the checklist, the
moderator or the clerk.
What if I do not have an approved photo ID?
Any voter who does not
present an approved photo ID will be permitted to vote after executing a “challenged voter affidavit.”
A voter who does not have an approved photo ID may obtain a free photo
ID for voting purposes only by presenting a voucher from their town/city clerk or the Secretary of State to any NH DMV office that issues identification.
Is there any post-election action required by me after I vote without an approved photo ID?
If you filled out a “challenged voter affidavit” in order to vote on Election Day, you will receive a verification letter from the Secretary of State, requesting confirmation that you voted in the election.
If you do not respond in writing to the Secretary of State within 90 days of the date it was mailed, the Attorney General will conduct an investigation to determine whether fraudulent voting occurred.
Where can I get more information?
From the Secretary of State SOS.NH.GOV at 271-3242 or your Town Clerk.
