Yes, I saw about the special session - but doesn’t say anything about whether or not the veto could be overridden.

#NEW: New Hampshire’s congressional map has passed the NH House (176-171) and the NH Senate (14-10).

Original house vote was not even close to veto override.

That answers the question. In some states in only requires it to be passed a second time to override.

I assumed it required a two third vote. This article excerpt from last year confirms this.

The Senate and House each need to muster two-thirds votes to override the governor’s veto.
