Bring your ID

New Hampshire now has a Voter ID law. To read about the law, click here. Voters will be asked for an ID and if they don’t have one, will be permitted to vote with an affidavit. State law requires a license, state ID, armed services ID, passport, government employment ID with a photo, a valid student ID, another photo ID approved by ward officials and clerks, or visual verification of the person by an official at the polling location.

Leave the paraphernalia at home

State law prohibits the wearing of campaign related clothing and materials (campaign pins, stickers or clothing) displaying slogans, sayings, names etc. inside polling locations. Voters who are displaying these materials inside a polling location will be asked to remove the items or may be required to wear a smock that will be provided by the moderator inside the polls.

Also, voters will not be violating the federal gun free school zones act if they are armed while voting, according to the NH AG’s Office. New Hampshire is an open carry state and firearms are allowed inside a polling location, including churches and schools. A concealed carry firearm is allowed as long as the voter is properly permitted.

Election hotline

The U.S. Justice Department has an Election Day program set up in New Hampshire. The hotline number is 603-230-2503. If you see anything unusual at the polls, witness fraud, or are kept from voting, call the hotline.
