Republican Governors are already doing everything they can to make it harder to vote next election
After spending much of the fall fighting to keep voting restrictions in place, some Republican governors are getting a head start for the next go around.
New Hampshire Governor-elect Chris Sununu said in an interview with New Hampshire Public Radio that he would like to eliminate the states practice of same-day voting registration.
The new governor, son of former senator and New Hampshire Governor John H. Sununu, wasnt entirely clear about why he wanted to get rid of the practice.
We just need our laws tighter. Its not about fraud and a rigged system, that nonsense. Its really just about making sure that our rules are clear, that theyre unambiguous, and that people can believe that as a full-time resident of the state of New Hampshire, your vote isnt being watered down by someone whos drive-thru voting, drive-by voting, Sununu told NHPR. We just need to modernize the system.
Its interesting that Sununu thinks getting rid of same-day voting is a modernization when in most states its addition is considered an innovation.
