Did you know New Hampshire ranked dead last out of the 50 states in the 2022 Cost of Voting Index? Yup. The index compares 10 areas of voting laws and the personal costs related with the time and effort it takes to cast a ballot. We also have no early voting or on-line registration. And thanks to further voter suppression legislation that was passed by extremists earlier this year, our ranking is kept safe and secure!
