A New Hampshire judge upheld a law requiring absentee voters to provide photo ID or an affidavit, citing election integrity.
A New Hampshire judge has upheld a Republican-backed law requiring absentee voters to provide photo ID or an affidavit, dismissing a lawsuit from three visually impaired residents who claimed the rule created undue barriers.
The law, signed by Governor Ayotte in August 2025, mandates ID submission via photo copy, notarization, or in-person presentation, aligning absentee voting standards with in-person requirements.
Judge David Ruoff ruled the requirement imposes reasonable, nondiscriminatory burdens and serves election integrity.
State officials praised the decision, while voting rights advocates criticized it as unnecessary.
The plaintiffs may appeal to the state Supreme Court, and related challenges to another voting law continue in federal court.
