The NH Secretary of State has just released the VOTERS GUIDE for the BALLOT QUESTION we will vote on Nov. 5. Here is the guide: chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.sos.nh.gov/sites/g/files/ehbemt561/files/documents/2024-10/2024-voters-guide-single-for-web.pdf
Many but not all candidates on our NH ballots have answered questionaires posed by Citizens Count. Look up your candidates at their website: https://www.citizenscount.org/elections
The voter registration bill signed into law on Sept. 12 WILL NOT BE IN EFFECT for the November election. All existing voting procedures are still in place. Please, bring a photo ID when you go to vote, to speed up the process for everyone.
People with visual disabilities can vote independently at all NH polling places using the “one4all” accessible voting equipment. Anyone may use that machine to cast a ballot. This video explains how it works.
Sample ballots are available on the Secretary of State’s website for every town or city ward . Go to the site, choose your party, find your town or city ward in the pull down menu. Download the pdf if you want to print it out. If you can’t download yours, visit your town/city clerk for a copy so you can plan your vote for the November 5 county/state/federal primary.

If you are not yet registration to vote, you may do so at town or city clerk’s office, until late October. Not sure you’re registered? Go to the Sec. of State’s website to find out at this link.
