New Hampshire HB289 amends domicile qualifications for voting, clarifying intent and presence requirements.

New Hampshire HB289 amends the definition of domicile for voting purposes, emphasizing that a person's domicile is where they have established a physical presence and intent to maintain a continuous presence for domestic, social, and civil purposes. It specifies that domicile cannot be claimed if the person is a legal dependent under custody at an address outside New Hampshire. The bill also allows students to claim domicile for voting in the town or city where they live while attending an institution of learning, provided they meet other requirements.
