Gregory Hill", "committee": "Election Law", "vote_yeas": 11, "vote_nays": 9, "text": "This bill, as amended by the committee, is designed to strengthen the public confidence in the integrity of our elections by closing the domicile loophole. Under current New Hampshire law, to be qualified to vote individuals must establish their domicile in the town or ward where they seek to register. Many new registrants satisfy this requirement by signing a \"domicile affidavit\" in which they attest under penalty of perjury that they are domiciled in the town or ward. The use of only an affidavit to prove domicile creates opportunities for voter fraud because election officials must take the applicant at his or her word. Furthermore, because the standard for domicile under RSA 654:1, 1, is entirely subjective (i.e., the person must have the intent to \"maintain a single continuous presence\" in the town or ward), it is virtually impossible to prove that an individual has misrepresented domicile in the affidavit. This bill sets forth a method of establishing domicile and requires all new registrants to produce documentary evidence substantiating that they have taken actions consistent with their intent to make the town or ward their domicile. It is a modest change in the law because it simply requires the registrant to produce some evidence to verify his or her domicile. It is an important change in the law because it makes false representations of domicile much more difficult and makes enforcement of the law much easier if there are misrepresentations. The bill also: (1) leaves unchanged current New Hampshire law regarding the voting domicile of students while attending an \"institute of learning\" (RSA 654:1, 1-a); (2) protects the right of the homeless to vote where they are living even if they have no documentary evidence establishing their domicile; (3) eliminates \"drive-by\" voting, but does so without imposing inflexible durational residency requirements; and (4) provides that no person who completes the voter registration form on Election Day can be denied a ballot even if the person failed to bring documentary evidence to the polls. The minority argues that the law should not be changed because there is not serious voter fraud. The majority rejects this as the standard the legislature should apply when considering election law reform. If current law creates opportunities for voter fraud the majority believes that the law should be changed to eliminate those opportunities regardless of whether anyone can demonstrate that the vulnerability in the law has been exploited."}, {"side": "Minority", "author": "Rep.

At the public hearing on this bill, Secretary Gardner testified that high voter turnout indicates voter confidence in their election process. There have never been any serious cases of voter fraud. This bill \"tightens up\" the voting process in order to address an unreasonable fear, at a cost unknown to us all. It does so by making registering to vote an adversarial process. Applicants have to prove domicile by selecting from a list, which, though non-exclusive, provides no guidance to election officials as to what might be acceptable, leading to inconsistent requirements from town to town. The bill also places a significant additional workload on local voting officials, promises longer lines at the polls which will discourage voting, and eliminates the Affidavit of Domicile which has proven effective for many years. This bill places an unreasonable burden on citizens attempting to exercise their most important and sacred right of citizenship."}], "source": "House Calendar 26, 2017", "date": "2017-06-01", "dated": "signed", "cite": "HC 26", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2017%5CNo%2026%20May%2026%202017.pdf"}], "docket_reports": [{"date": "2017-03-30", "dated": "signed", "body": "S", "committee": "Election Law and Internal Affairs", "side": "", "recommendation": "OUGHT TO PASS WITH AMENDMENT", "vote_yeas": null, "vote_nays": null, "amendment": "2017-1016s", "new_title": false, "cite": "SC 16", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2017%5CNo%2016%20March%2023%202017.pdf"}], "report_actions": [], "veto_message": null, "bill_note": null, "subject": "Elections", "subject_source": "granite record", "house_committee": "Election Law", "senate_committee": "Election Law and Internal Affairs", "lsr": "2017-0883", "docket_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=0883&sy=2017&txtsessionyear=2017&txtbillnumber=sb3&sortoption=billnumber", "documents": [{"label": "Bill text", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/billText.aspx?id=885&txtFormat=html&sy=2017", "kind": "text"}, {"label": "Bill status page", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/Bill_status.aspx?lsr=0883&sy=2017&txtsessionyear=2017&txtbillnumber=sb3&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "status"}, {"label": "Docket", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=0883&sy=2017&txtsessionyear=2017&txtbillnumber=sb3&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "docket"}, {"label": "SC 12", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2017%5CNo%2012%20February%2023%202017.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "SC 13", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2017%5CNo%2013%20March%2002%202017.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "SC 16", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2017%5CNo%2016%20March%2023%202017.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "HC 26, page 13", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2017%5CNo%2026%20May%2026%202017.pdf", "kind": "record"}], "amendments": [{"num": "2017-1016s", "kind": "Committee Amendment", "where": "committee", "date": "2017-03-30", "body": "S", "adopted": true, "vote_kind": "RC", "mover": "", "proposed_by": "", "text": "", "source": "", "targets": [], "supersedes": []}, {"num": "2017-1775h", "kind": "Committee Amendment", "where": "committee", "date": "2017-06-01", "body": "H", "adopted": true, "vote_kind": "VV", "mover": "", "proposed_by": "", "text": "Proposed by the Majority of the Committee on Election Law - r Amend the bill by replacing all after the enacting clause with the following: 1 Voters; Temporary Absence or Presence.

A domicile for voting purposes acquired by any person in any town shall not be interrupted or lost by a temporary absence therefrom with the intention of returning thereto as his or her domicile. Domicile for the purpose of voting as defined in RSA 654:1, once existing, continues to exist until another such domicile is gained. Domicile for purposes of voting is a question of fact and intention coupled with a verifiable act or acts carrying out that intent. A voter can have only one domicile for [these] voting purposes. No person shall be deemed to have lost a domicile by reason of his or her presence or absence while the voter or his or her spouse is employed in the service of the United States; nor while engaged in the navigation of the waters of the United States or of the high seas; nor while a teacher in or student of any seminary of learning; nor while confined in any public prison or other penal institution; nor while a patient or confined for any reason in any nursing, convalescent home or hospital, old folks or old age home, or like institution or private facility. II.(a) A person present in New Hampshire for temporary purposes shall not gain a domicile for voting purposes. A person who maintains a voting domicile where he or she came from, to which he or she intends to return to as his or her voting domicile after a temporary presence in New Hampshire, does not gain a domicile in New Hampshire regardless of the duration of his or her presence in New Hampshire. (b) A person who has been present and residing in one town or ward in New Hampshire for 30 or fewer days is presumed to be present for temporary purposes unless that person has the intention of making the place in which the person resides his or her one place, more than any other, from which he or she engages in the domestic, social, and civil activities of participating in democratic self-government including voting, and has acted to carry out that intent. (c) For the purposes of this chapter, temporary purposes shall include, but are not limited to, being present in New Hampshire for 30 or fewer days for the purposes of tourism, visiting family or friends, performing short-term work, or volunteering or working to influence voters in an upcoming election. (d) For the purposes of voter registration under RSA 654:7, IV(c), an applicant shall demonstrate an intent to make a place his or her domicile by providing documentation showing that the applicant has a domicile at the address provided on the voter registration form. Such documentation may include, but is not limited to: (1) Evidence of residency, as set forth in RSA 654:1, I-a, at an institution of learning in that place; (2) Evidence of renting or leasing an abode at that place for a period of more than 30 days, to include time directly prior to an election day; (3) Evidence of purchasing an abode at that place; (4) A New Hampshire resident motor vehicle registration, driver's license, or identification card issued under RSA 260:21, RSA 260:21-a, or RSA 260:21-b listing that place as his or her residence; (5) Evidence of enrolling the person's dependent minor child in a publicly funded elementary or secondary school which serves the town or ward of that place, using the address where the registrant resides; (6) Identifying that place as the person's physical residence address on state or federal tax forms, other government-issued identification, or other government forms that show the domicile address; (7) Evidence of providing the address of that place to the United States Post Office as the person's permanent address, provided it is not a postal service or commercial post office box; (8) Evidence of obtaining public utility services for an indefinite period at that place; or (9) Evidence of arranging for a homeless shelter or similar service provider located in the town or ward to receive United States mail on behalf of the individual using that facility's address as the individual's domicile address for voting purposes. (e) An applicant whose domicile is at an abode rented, leased, or owned by another and whose name is not listed on the rental agreement, lease, or deed may provide a written statement from a person who is listed on the rental agreement, lease, or deed, or other reasonable proof of ownership or control of the property or his or her agent who manages the property that the applicant resides at that address, signed by the owner or manager of the property under penalty of voting fraud if false information is provided. III. An individual applying for registration as a voter 30 or fewer days before an election shall use the election day registration form required by RSA 654:7, IV(c) which shall require the applicant to provide the date he or she established his or her voting domicile in New Hampshire. The registration form shall require the voter to identify and provide evidence of a verifiable action he or she has taken carrying out his or her intent to make the place claimed on the voter registration form his or her domicile. IV. A person may register on election day through use of an acknowledgment of domicile evidence obligation on the registration form and vote if he or she does not have any document in his or her possession at the polls providing evidence of an action carrying out his or her intent to make the address claimed as his or her voting domicile. A person relying on an acknowledgment of domicile evidence obligation to register must mail or present evidence of an action taken before registering to vote to carry out his or her intent to make the address claimed his or her domicile to the town or city clerk within 10 days following the election, or within 30 days in towns where the clerk's office is open fewer than 20 hours weekly. V. The supervisors of the checklist, as soon as practical following an election, shall determine which registrants of that election acknowledged there was no evidence of intent to be domiciled at their address or relied solely on an acknowledgment of domicile evidence obligation to register and vote, and, of those registrants, those who failed to mail or present evidence of having taken some action to carry out their intent to establish domicile at the address listed on their voter registration applications to the clerk by the deadline. The supervisors shall attempt to verify that each such person was domiciled at the address claimed on election day by means including, but not limited to: (a) Examining public records held by the town or city clerk, municipal assessing and planning offices, tax collector, or other municipal office that may house public records containing domicile confirmation; or (b) Requesting 2 or more municipal officers or their agents or state election officers or their agents to visit the address and verify that the individual was domiciled there on election day. In unincorporated places that have not organized for the purposes of conducting elections, county officers may be asked to perform this function; or (c) Referring the registrant's information to the secretary of state, who shall cause such further investigation as is warranted. VI. Any case where supervisors are unable to verify the applicant's domicile or where evidence exists of voting fraud shall be promptly reported to the secretary of state and to the attorney general, who shall cause such further investigation as is warranted. After receiving confirmation from the secretary of state that an individual is not domiciled at the address provided, the supervisors shall also initiate removal of the person from the checklist by sending the person the notice required by RSA 654:44. 2 Voter Registration Form. Amend RSA 654:7, III-IV to read as follows: III. If an applicant is unable to provide the proof of qualifications as required in RSA 654:12, he or she may register by completing the necessary affidavits, pursuant to RSA 654:12, and completing the form in subparagraph IV(b), unless the person is registering within 30 days before an election or at the polling place on [the date of a state general] election day. If an applicant is registering at the polling place on [the date of a state general] election day and is unable to provide the proof of qualifications as required in RSA 654:12, he or she may register by completing the form in subparagraph IV(c) under oath, which oath may be witnessed by an election official or any other person, working in conjunction with the supervisors of the checklist, who is authorized by law to administer oaths, including, but not limited to, any justice of the peace or notary public; should the applicant not otherwise have proof of identity and therefore be relying upon the form for proof of identity, the act of swearing to the form shall constitute sufficient proof of identity for the purposes of any person administering the oath, notwithstanding any language to the contrary in any laws relating to the administering of oaths for other purposes. IV.(a) Standard registration application forms shall be used throughout the state. The registration forms shall be no larger than 8 1/2 inches by 11 inches. (b) The secretary of state shall prescribe the form of the voter registration form to be used for voter registrations, transfers, or updates other than those used within 30 days of an election or at the polling place on [the date of a state general] election day, which shall be in substantially the following form: ___ NEW REGISTRATION I am not registered to vote in New Hampshire ___ TRANSFER I am registered to vote in New Hampshire and have moved my voting domicile to a new town or ward in New Hampshire ___ NAME CHANGE/ADDRESS UPDATE I am registered to vote in this town/ward and have changed my name/address Date __________________________ VOTER REGISTRATION FORM (Please print or type) 1.

In declaring New Hampshire as my domicile, I realize that I am not qualified to vote in the state or federal elections in another state.

No person shall be deemed to have lost a domicile by reason of his or her presence or absence while the voter or his or her spouse is employed in the service of the United States; nor while engaged in the navigation of the waters of the United States or of the high seas; nor while a teacher in or student of any seminary of learning; nor while confined in any public prison or other penal institution; nor while a patient or confined for any reason in any nursing, convalescent home or hospital, old folks or old age home, or like institution or private facility.\n\nII.(a) A person present in New Hampshire for temporary purposes shall not gain a domicile for voting purposes. A person who maintains a voting domicile where he or she came from, to which he or she intends to return to as his or her voting domicile after a temporary presence in New Hampshire, does not gain a domicile in New Hampshire regardless of the duration of his or her presence in New Hampshire.\n\n(b) A person who has been present and residing in one town or ward in New Hampshire for 30 or fewer days is presumed to be present for temporary purposes unless that person has the intention of making the place in which the person resides his or her one place, more than any other, from which he or she engages in the domestic, social, and civil activities of participating in democratic self-government including voting, and has acted to carry out that intent.\n\n(c) For the purposes of this chapter, temporary purposes shall include, but are not limited to, being present in New Hampshire for 30 or fewer days for the purposes of tourism, visiting family or friends, performing short - term work, or volunteering or working to influence voters in an upcoming election.\n\n(d) For the purposes of voter registration under RSA 654:7, IV(c), an applicant shall demonstrate an intent to make a place his or her domicile by providing documentation showing that the applicant has a domicile at the address provided on the voter registration form. Such documentation may include, but is not limited to:\n\n(1) Evidence of residency, as set forth in RSA 654:1, I-a, at an institution of learning in that place;\n\n(2) Evidence of renting or leasing an abode at that place for a period of more than 30 days, to include time directly prior to an election day;\n\n(3) Evidence of purchasing an abode at that place;\n\n(4) A New Hampshire resident motor vehicle registration, driver's license, or identification card issued under RSA 260:21, RSA 260:21-a, or RSA 260:21-b listing that place as his or her residence;\n\n(5) Evidence of enrolling the person's dependent minor child in a publicly funded elementary or secondary school which serves the town or ward of that place, using the address where the registrant resides;\n\n(6) Identifying that place as the person's physical residence address on state or federal tax forms, other government-issued identification, or other government forms that show the domicile address;\n\n(7) Evidence of providing the address of that place to the United States Post Office as the person's permanent address, provided it is not a postal service or commercial post office box;\n\n(8) Evidence of obtaining public utility services for an indefinite period at that place; or\n\n(9) Evidence of arranging for a homeless shelter or similar service provider located in the town or ward to receive United States mail on behalf of the individual using that facility's address as the individual's domicile address for voting purposes.\n\n(e) An applicant whose domicile is at an abode rented, leased, or owned by another and whose name is not listed on the rental agreement, lease, or deed may provide a written statement from a person who is listed on the rental agreement, lease, or deed, or other reasonable proof of ownership or control of the property or his or her agent who manages the property that the applicant resides at that address, signed by the owner or manager of the property under penalty of voting fraud if false information is provided. III. An individual applying for registration as a voter 30 or fewer days before an election shall use the election day registration form required by RSA 654:7, IV(c) which shall require the applicant to provide the date he or she established his or her voting domicile in New Hampshire. The registration form shall require the voter to identify and provide evidence of a verifiable action he or she has taken carrying out his or her intent to make the place claimed on the voter registration form his or her domicile.\n\nIV. A person may register on election day through use of an acknowledgment of domicile evidence obligation on the registration form and vote if he or she does not have any document in his or her possession at the polls providing evidence of an action carrying out his or her intent to make the address claimed as his or her voting domicile. A person relying on an acknowledgment of domicile evidence obligation to register must mail or present evidence of an action taken before registering to vote to carry out his or her intent to make the address claimed his or her domicile to the town or city clerk within 10 days following the election, or within 30 days in towns where the clerk's office is open fewer than 20 hours weekly.\n\nV. The supervisors of the checklist, as soon as practical following an election, shall determine which registrants of that election acknowledged there was no evidence of intent to be domiciled at their address or relied solely on an acknowledgment of domicile evidence obligation to register and vote, and, of those registrants, those who failed to mail or present evidence of having taken some action to carry out their intent to establish domicile at the address listed on their voter registration applications to the clerk by the deadline. The supervisors shall attempt to verify that each such person was domiciled at the address claimed on election day by means including, but not limited to:\n\n(a) Examining public records held by the town or city clerk, municipal assessing and planning offices, tax collector, or other municipal office that may house public records containing domicile confirmation; or\n\n(b) Requesting 2 or more municipal officers or their agents or state election officers or their agents to visit the address and verify that the individual was domiciled there on election day. In unincorporated places that have not organized for the purposes of conducting elections, county officers may be asked to perform this function; or\n\n(c) Referring the registrant's information to the secretary of state, who shall cause such further investigation as is warranted.\n\nVI. Any case where supervisors are unable to verify the applicant's domicile or where evidence exists of voting fraud shall be promptly reported to the secretary of state and to the attorney general, who shall cause such further investigation as is warranted. After receiving confirmation from the secretary of state that an individual is not domiciled at the address provided, the supervisors shall also initiate removal of the person from the checklist by sending the person the notice required by RSA 654:44.\n\n205:2 Voter Registration Form. Amend RSA 654:7, III-IV to read as follows:\n\nIII. If an applicant is unable to provide the proof of qualifications as required in RSA 654:12, he or she may register by completing the necessary affidavits, pursuant to RSA 654:12, and completing the form in subparagraph IV(b), unless the person is registering within 30 days before an election or at the polling place on [ the date of a state general] election day.

The registration forms shall be no larger than 8 1/2 inches by 11 inches.\n\n(b) The secretary of state shall prescribe the form of the voter registration form to be used for voter registrations, transfers, or updates other than those used within 30 days of an election or at the polling place on [ the date of a state general] election day, which shall be in substantially the following form:\n\n___ NEW REGISTRATION I am not registered to vote in New Hampshire\n\n___ TRANSFER I am registered to vote in New Hampshire and have moved my voting domicile to a new town or ward in New Hampshire\n\n___ NAME CHANGE/ADDRESS UPDATE I am registered to vote in this town/ward and have changed my name/address\n\nDate ____________________\n\nVOTER REGISTRATION FORM\n\n(Please print or type)\n\n1.
