*In most towns! For your town’s specific voting times, visit your town’s website or call the town offices.

While municipal elections in New Hampshire cities are typically held in the fall, most towns across the state will hold town elections on March 10.

Now, when voting rights are under attack at the state and federal level, it is more important than ever to participate. Why? Because voter identification law has changed in New Hampshire, and it may affect your ability to register and to vote.For example, if you are registering to vote after changing your name (due to marriage, for example), you now must provide legal certification (marriage license or name change documents) or passport with your new name on it.
