requiring the inclusion of a voter's year of birth on the voter checklist.
HB 1284 requires New Hampshire election officials to include a voter's year of birth on official voter checklists, alongside existing information like full name, address, and party affiliation. This applies to all checklists used in elections, including those maintained by local election supervisors. The bill amends state law to explicitly mandate this detail as a standard field, without altering how voters interact with the checklist or changing requirements for voter privacy requests. It takes effect 60 days after passage.
