Great news, finally.

Does this mean the dead cant vote for democrats anymore.

Underwater Couple is an apt sobriquet. I take it you don't mind your property taxes going up to pay for this unnecessary legislation?

Given that the only voter fraud perpetuated in NH has been by Republicans, it's surprising that the freebaglicans are so hot for it. Of course the money trail leads right to ALEC and the Koch Bros.

Yeahright. And that's why your property taxes went up this year, because of Democrats.

Looks like the dems let down one of their main voting blocks. The Dead.

Yay! A solution to a problem that didn't exist!

"Over the past century, our nation expanded the franchise and knocked down myriad barriers to full electoral participation. In 2011, however, that momentum abruptly shifted.

State governments across the country enacted an array of new laws making it harder to register or to vote. Some states require voters to show government-issued photo identification, often of a type that as many as one in ten voters do not have. Other states have cut back on early voting, a hugely popular innovation used by millions of Americans. Two states reversed earlier reforms and once again disenfranchised millions who have past criminal convictions but who are now taxpaying members of the community. Still others made it much more difficult for citizens to register to vote, a prerequisite for voting.

These new restrictions fall most heavily on young, minority, and low-income voters, as well as on voters with disabilities. This wave of changes may sharply tilt the political terrain for the 2012 election."

If Republican really gave a damn about stolen elections, they'd push for paper ballots. Won't hear a peep from them about that. Tricks and cold, hard cash is all they've got.

My $0.02 - can you show some proof of voter fraud in NH?

VoteR vs. Vote Fraud- A point of interest and history:
The actual original term, among the in-the-trenches election SYSTEM investigators, was never "voteR fraud", but, rather, "vote fraud." The suddenly-soon-made-popular term, "voter fraud," was viewed by investigators as a clever trick to take the focus off the then recently-discovered *systemic* election fraud and shift the onus to the voter. The predominant fraud had actually been found at the *design* level- i.e., back doors in the invisible, fully-flashable firmware, hidden filters, widespread in-machine vaporous vote counts without proper checks and balances, oversight, etc. Also among many alarming findings by reputable investigators of notable expertise, less than three sets of books were found inside the universal election systems software, and standard accounting practices were absent.
Yet, on the premise of "voteR fraud",  "Voter I.D." bills were strategically-seeded in all states, with remarkably similarly language, by what have since proved to be such groups as Koch interests, Heritage and ALEC. (con't)

When New Hampshire held out, "O'Keefe" proved the icing on the cake for this state. See how this divisively clever strategy has had us in-fighting- divided- undermining our own state, when we might all well do better firmly uniting together to secure our state's elections from such clever outsider interests as, dare we say, the C I A and N S A?
Meanwhile, the unfortunate trend to further centralize complete control of invisible electronic elections worldwide is intensifying, with the recent rollout of so-called "Internet Voting," viewed by many as the "digital death of your ballot." Bad enough that George Soros is now slated, it is reported, to personally oversee the U.S. General Election "vote count," itself, via SCYTL., a private outfit based in Spain! http://www.prisonplanet.com/a-spanish-company-known-as-scytl-will-be-reporting-election-results-for-hundreds-of-u-s-jurisdictions-on-election-day.html

The graceful way out of this spiraling electronic elections mess- a 40-year business plan in the making- it now seems, is to hail and highlight the excellent leadership of our own Lyndeborough, New Hampshire, with its ordinance-driven insistence on hand-counted paper ballots- hand-counted by officials in public view on site on Election Night- thus more so immune to the ever-pressing potential for increasingly more centralized electronic vote count sleight-of-hand.
Early on in the e-voting evolution of this state, S.O.S. Bill Gardner shared that, if he had it *his* way, he'd want hand-counted paper ballots for New Hampshire. "But," he said, "I can't tell the Moderators what to do." If the good City Clerks and Moderators of New Hampshire will simply stand with him on this, we could well inspire
other states to do the same, and *all* emerge in November as the winner.

Please note, typo in the above (1 of 3) was to read:
"Also among many alarming findings by reputable investigators of notable expertise, [no] less than three sets of books were found inside the universal election systems software, and standard accounting practices were absent."

This bill was passed because the People of NH wanted it passed. This simple fact always escapes democrats. Democrats think that the people of the state are stupid and ignorant. They are not.

GREAT NEWS!

Extremist liberals lost, they should get over it and get out of the way of progress.

There's a reason democrats don't want a voter ID bill. It's the same reason they don't want the borders secured and don't want illegal immigrants deported.

I agree - when every citizen of voting age has been issued a photo ID - then a bill to require it being shown when voting is exactly right.

.02 cents worth: I have locks on my doors to keep people from robbing me, not to keep them honest! Honest people won't rob me!

so how do people under the age of 21 drink? fake id's!!! Is this really going to solve anything? especially when there is no voter fraud problem and this law will make it more difficult for certain groups of people to vote!

My $0.02 - you cannot show any proof that voter fraud exists in NH, but we're supposed to take it on your say so that it's a problem. Sorry, sparky - I like facts, not anecdotes.

Seamus - I would love to see you try to pull someone else's ballot in the town I vote in. You'd be in cuffs quicker than you could tell a teabaglican lie. Do us all a favor, DO IT.

Hocus Pocus Can't Seem to Focus: What do you know about NH? The legislature, full of one term teabaggers doesn't represent the majority of the voters in NH. They'll all be out on their behinds come November, and they know it - which is why they're passing so much crap legislation. Now, let's see some proof of NH Voter fraud, not being committed by out of state Republicans?

In other words, you have no proof of voter fraud, so you're going to try lame diversionary tactics. And of course, everyone who doesn't agree with you MUST be a Democrat. Pretty dumb but consistent teabagger strategy. Are you even from NH, out of Focus?

All rightey than. You have no proof of voter fraud in NH, and you're from out of state. Thank for clearing that up.

NewsFlash - you're way, way off topic. The topic is NH Voter fraud. Got anything to say about that?? Jealous? Of dull witted Republicans? You're kidding, right?

You brought Tea Party into the conversation didn't you. Are you ashamed of democratic support of the Occupy Jerks, is that your problem. Maybe just because of their failure.

Also, the Occupy infiltration to NH was from "Out of State". That topic you also brought up.

NewsFlash: A number of teabaggers are serving in the NH legislature, hence my bringing them into a discussion of an NH VOTER ID Bill. You don't have much of a clue, do you sparky? Can you tell us what Occupy has to do with the topic or the voter ID bill? Can you offer up some proof of NH voter fraud? I'm guessing that you can do none of the above.

Don't wait by the phone for mensa to call.

Project Veritas up to it again, this time in North Carolina.

There they go again....the liberal Dems can't win an argument, so they start calling others names if don't think the way they do. Teabaggers? Really? How crude can they get.

and as for susanthe, the way a republican democracy works is that the people (the living ones) vote for representatives and the reps pass laws. In 2010, the Dems that spent our state towards ruin, were booted and the Rs became the majority because the people of NH wanted them back. If you don't like the laws they pass, you can do one of two things: campaign for your candidates using sound arguments, or you can move. I hear Massachusetts is looking for a few more liberal namecalling Dems. You should fit in quite well with the likes of Elizabeth Fauxahantus Warren.

There they go again. Republicans rewriting history and stereotyping. (Isn't "liberal Dem" redundant?) And of course anyone who criticizes the far right fascists of the NH Freebaglican party MUST be a Democrat. You people don't have intellect, you have jerking right knees.

That said, how quickly you try to forget and pretend that Teabaggers called themselves Teabaggers in the beginning of their "movement." It was on hats, on pins, and on signs.

I thought you people hated political correctness??? Apparently only when the bag is on the other chin.

The mobility of dead people is astounding. They vote in New Hampshire, jump in a car and drive to North Carolina. Democrats should be proud because they drove a Chevy Volt.
