HB 341 New Hampshire House · 2025 Regular Session

requiring the secretary of state to check voter records prior to every election.

HB 341 requires the Secretary of State to verify voter registration records before every election to ensure accuracy. This directly affects voters (by potentially preventing registration errors) and election officials (who must implement the verification process). The bill's key mechanism mandates a mandatory pre-election check of voter records, though it does not change voting procedures or eligibility rules. The bill was recently reported as "Inexpedient to Legislate" by committee with a 17-0 vote, effectively halting further action.
