School IDs and Voting Rights in New Hampshire | Concord News

A voting rights group in Concord is suing to restore school-issued IDs as valid voter ID in New Hampshire, arguing the state’s new policy unfairly burdens young voters who lack easy access to government-issued IDs. The law, passed this year and expanded by the Secretary of State, bans high school and college IDs — despite years of unchallenged use — creating a barrier for students who can’t afford passports or drive to secure IDs. While critics say it ensures uniform standards for all voters, advocates warn it disenfranchises eligible youth. With the state primary just weeks away, the group seeks an immediate fix as legal battles continue — including a prior successful challenge against restrictive voter ID rules.
