Did voter fraud in New Hampshire save ObamaCare from being repealed?
The Presidential Commission on Election Integrity is meeting Tuesday in New Hampshire and may eventually provide an answer.
A debate is raging in the state, home of the first presidential primary, about whether state election laws were violated last November by out-of-state Democrats who entered New Hampshire and took advantage of the same-day voter registration law to falsely claim they were New Hampshire residents.

If voter fraud by out-of-state Democrats managed to sway New Hampshire elections the implications are huge
Too late. Better to ask for forgiveness than permission.
Since when have we seen punishment for voter fraud in the past 60 years?
It shouldn’t be too late. If fraud is proven, results should change plain and simple.
This thing has gotten silly.
Required for voting with an out-of-state driver license is some proof of residence. If that is not available, the voter has to submit an affidavit of residency in NH. If the precincts didn’t already destroy those affidavits, it is a simple matter to review them.
In fact, they already should have been reviewed, since the entire purpose of the affidavit is to render the ballot provisional, pending confirmation of the information contained. Either they have been reviewed or they haven’t. If not, law has been violated.
Maybe not. After being elected as a Tea Party candidate for her first term, Ayotte stupidly allowed herself to become a McCain puppet attached at the hip to him. Had she have won reelection she may have voted exactly as McCain did to not approve the O-Care replacement.
Ho hum. Sessions won’t bring any charges.
Out of the 5300 voters who used out-of-state driver’s licenses, did not apply for in-state driver’s licenses, and did not register a car in-state, more than 4000 were in college towns.
It’s perfectly legal for a college student to vote in the state where he is enrolled, provided that he does not vote in his home state. And it’s perfectly legal for him to retain his home state driver’s license.
He’s jumping to conclusions.
Doubt it. Enough GOP critters would have crossed over to defeat it.
As a side note to this thread, please consider the following.
Even if alleged voting problem turns out to be untrue, it hadn’t occurred to me until threads about this issue started appearing that this potential Senate-related voting problem is another good reason to repeal the ill-conceived 17th Amendment.
The 17th Amendment effectively repealed the whole Constitution imo and needs to disappear. 16 can go too.
Shouldn’t be too difficult to research the 4K who voted to see if they voted in their home State
Well, that would require a serious effort.
“Out of the 5300 voters who used out-of-state driver’s licenses, did not apply for in-state driver’s licenses, and did not register a car in-state, more than 4000 were in college towns.”
Except that the law is CLEAR in New Hampshire. If you want to identify as a resident, you have 60 days to transfer your driver license, college town or not. They didn’t.
Yeah but this one may get a stern letter from Darrell Issa or Trey Gowdy .
Re: “Either they [election day voter registrations] have been reviewed or they haven’t. If not, law has been violated.”
Were the “provisional” votes in NH actually counted, or just set aside?
In Washington state, election day registration votes are not counted at all unless they outnumber the margin of victory in any specific election contest.
Then, and only then, must each “provisional” vote be validated before it can be counted.
Clearly, NH had enough “provisional” votes to swing the statewide presidential and Senate elections to Trump.
Whether counted, or not, it seems very strange that the NH Republican Party was not all over this issue 10 months ago.
Well said.
it hadn’t occurred to me until threads about this issue started appearing that this potential Senate-related voting problem is another good reason to repeal the ill-conceived 17th Amendment.Oh really Amendment10 since 2006?
Because having a state legislature appoint their favorite puppets "to represent us" would be so much better than the citizens choosing for themselves< /sarcasm >.

This is a New Hampshire problem, first and foremost. They bring this on themselves with their stupid same-day voter registration rules.
