New voter ID law in effect for 2025 New Hampshire town meeting season

As town meeting season nears, the New Hampshire Secretary of State’s Office is reminding residents of a new voter ID law.

House Bill 1569, which took effect days after the Nov. 5, 2024, general election and is now law, requires all voters to bring identification to vote in New Hampshire without exception. It eliminates a previous provision that allowed voters to sign a legally binding affidavit attesting to their residency if they did not have identification.

Under the new law, if a voter does not have identification at the polls, they will be turned away and asked to retrieve it.

Identification can be a driver’s license or a non-driver ID. Voters do not need a New Hampshire driver’s license in order to vote; if they are already registered to vote, they can use an out-of-state license.
