relative to the number of polling stations that are available for certain towns and cities during a general election which includes the election for the office of President of the United States.

SB 103 requires towns and cities in New Hampshire to maintain at least one polling station for every 20,000 registered voters during presidential election general elections, unless they obtain prior approval from the Secretary of State for fewer locations. This directly affects municipalities with over 20,000 registered voters as of January 1, 2026 - including Concord, Manchester, Nashua, and others listed in the bill's analysis. The bill mandates this minimum polling station ratio for presidential elections only, with no impact on the Secretary of State's budget. Local governments unable to secure approval may face additional costs between $10,000 and $100,000 for setting up new polling locations.
