NH is actually a purple state that now has more registered Republicans than Democrats. It has a Republican House, Senate, Executive Council, and Governor.
The problem is that same-day registration/voting by out-of-state college students are tipping the federal elections. Hillary beat Trump and Hassan beat Ayotte for federal Senate by less than the number of same-day college student registrations. These students are swearing that they plan to live in NH going forward, with no follow-up verification and punishment for perjurers. And I am positive that the out-of-staters were not registering to vote Republican in past elections.
You sure got that right. College students are the death of NH.
