Hello committee members, Please approve this bill. I have seen many irregularities, lack of chain of custody, and lack of follow up on requests for investigations over the last 4 years. It's time to start investigating these issues, holding people accountable for their actions and enforce penalties for not following the laws. We need transparency, accountability and consistency in our elections across NH. This bill is a first step in the right direction. Please support this bill. Thank you and God bless, Deb Roux

There was no ability to find this investigation and who did it.

There is no need for the legislature to set up this kind of committee. The NH Ballot Law Commission is already convened under the Office of the Secretary of State of NH to adjudicate any and ALL issues pertaining to election violations according to the State's Election statutes (RSA 656). Oppose this bill,

ANOTHER Committee? We already have The Ballot Law Commission to do the described job. Why do we need yet another bureaucratic committee?

There is nothing unsafe about our elections in NH and republicans are trying to limit voting rights of residents, which is very wrong and undemocratic. This bill attempts to solve a problem that is not there. Stop making NH less democratic and free to vote.

I don't like it. This is a disturbing misuse of power. Three people appointed by president of the senate should not be the ones with this responsibility.

Elections can never be too secure. Violations and suspected violations should always be studied thoroughly.
