Federal judge in New Hampshire denies request that would have blocked a new state law requiring voters to be full-fledged residents from being enforced for the upcoming presidential primary.
Catch up on the developing stories making headlines.
Before the law took effect, New Hampshire was the only state that didn’t require residency to vote. Though it doesn’t change the process of registering to vote, it effectively makes out-of-state college students who vote in New Hampshire subject to residency requirements, such as obtaining drivers’ licenses and registering cars.
U.S. District Judge Joseph LaPlante ruled Wednesday the plaintiffs didn’t prove their claims, saying they produced no witnesses stating that the confusion led them to decide not to register to vote. “Indeed, all of the witnesses who testified that they currently have out-of-state licenses also testified that they are registered to vote in New Hampshire,” LaPlante wrote.
