Everyone asking how it’s over 1000 per 1000. I am assuming since different states have a different minimum driving age the surveyors perhaps went somewhere in the middle and we’re a year or two below. Don’t just assume the person who put the data/survey together is stupid, use your critical thinking skills…

If your assumption is correct it doesn't make them any less stupid. It makes it a pretty useless data set.

I am a recent college grad. I did not know a single student who switched to a NH license in their 4-6 years of college. 6 being masters students.

Why would you need a NH license to vote as a college student?

II. College Student Voting New Hampshire election law provides college students with a special privilege when determining where they register to vote. A college student in New Hampshire may choose as his/her voting domicile, either the domicile he/she held before entering college or the domicile he/she has established while attending college. New Hampshire law provides the following definition of domicile: An inhabitant's domicile for voting purposes is that one place where a person, more than any other place, has established a physical presence and manifests an intent to maintain a single continuous presence for domestic, social, and civil purposes relevant to participating in democratic self-government. A person has the right to change domicile at any time, however a mere intention to change domicile in the future does not, of itself, terminate an established domicile before the person actually moves. A person’s claim of domicile for voting purposes shall not be conclusive of the person’s residence for any other purpose.
