The legislation, referred to in New Hampshire by its legislative shorthand, H.B. 1264, establishes more stringent residency requirements, requiring prospective voters to get a state driver’s license and car registration if they want to vote in New Hampshire.
Under the new law, to vote without taking those steps warrants a misdemeanor charge. The law is set to take effect in July.
Muscatel, the student state legislator, ran for office 2018 with a focus on voting rights. Originally from California and now a New Hampshire resident, he described what it would take for out-of-state college students like him to vote without running afoul of the new law: a 40-minute drive to the nearest DMV, $50 to apply for a license, up to $300 to register your car if you own one.

More voter suppression - lying, theiving, cheating, GOPers. Enough is Enough. The poll taxes they used to impose on black ppl now being imposed on young college kids. Deplorable bastards.
