CACR 4 New Hampshire House · 2025 Regular Session

relating to voting eligibility. Providing that only legal resident citizens who are at least 18 years of age or older who reside in the place they claim as a domicile shall be eligible voters.

CACR 4 sets new requirements for voting eligibility in the state, limiting the right to vote to legal resident citizens who are at least 18 years old and live in the specific place they claim as their permanent home. This bill directly affects voters who currently reside in the state but may not meet the "domicile" requirement, such as non-citizens, individuals under 18, or those living in a location without permanent residence. The key provision mandates that voters must prove both citizenship, age, and a permanent residence within the jurisdiction where they cast their ballot. The bill does not change existing voter registration processes but adds these specific eligibility criteria to the voting rules.
