“New Hampshire voter ID law goes into effect”

The Union Leader reports that the new law “requires voters to present a
valid photo ID to vote at the polls or be photographed and sign an
affidavit saying they are who they say they are.” … The new law also requires preclearance from
the U.S. Department of Justice. A Justice spokesman did not reply to a
request for comment Friday.  New Hampshire — the only Northern
state affected — and 15 other states are subject to Section 5 of the
Voting Rights Act of 1965, which seeks to eliminate discriminatory
voting practices that bar or hinder voting by minorities.

We will see if New Hampshire gets the same treatment as the Southern states with the new photo ID law.
