HB323 Requiring the presentation of a government-issued photographic means of identification in order to vote.

The bill itself creates no direct taxpayer costs, though implementation and potential ID-acquisition costs fall on residents who lack qualifying identification.

Student voters lose access to a previously accepted form of ID, and communities serving elderly or low-income residents may see reduced voting participation among constituents without current photo identification.

The bill restricts access to voting by eliminating student ID as valid identification and imposing a photo ID requirement that some otherwise-eligible NH residents may lack.
