I recently moved to NH from out of state. I went to my town hall and filled out a form to vote earlier this week. I have not yet aquired a NH license, or any ID which reflects that I live in this state. Can i show up to vote with my Massachusetts ID since I filled that form out with my town hall?
The poll workers have always been great in the towns I've lived in, they want people to vote and will definitely help you get sorted out.
I voted in NH with a Delaware ID for the 2020 election. I brought proof of address and it was a fairly simple process.
You can use a > Driver’s license issued by any state or federal government.
among others.
If you don't have any approved ID at all, you can still vote.
> Any voter who does not present an approved photo ID, or have their identity verified by an election official (as indicated above) will be permitted to vote after executing a challenged voter affidavit and having a photo taken
I was homeless during the last election. There's definitely a way to vote.
Hope your situation has improved.
Thanks, it has. Other than financially, I'm doing quite well.
If you registered your MA ID should be fine. Worst case you have to fill out and sign an affadavit saying you legally reside in NH.
So I'm pretty sure you can although you will need proof of residence. A bill with your NH address on it in your name. Or mortgage or apartment paperwork with your name and address. Something along those lines. Good luck voting!
If you have any paperwork that lists you being at that address that may work. If you have a lease, utilities, you may be able to use those instead. I would contact City Hall of your town and tell them your predicament. If you could register to vote, I would assume you had something that you can bring on election day.

Go to the DMV and get a New Hampshire license.
They don't print them out instantly....

Why would you need an ID? That's racist!
Red all the way

I'm an election official, in Keene. You can show up with the MA ID card. Since you registered late, I'm not sure that your name will be listed on the voter role sheets (I'm not sure what the cutoff date was). If not, you'll go through the new voter registration process, and you'll swear an affidavit that you reside within the town/Ward where you are voting.
Bottom line... If you show up at your correct polling place, you WILL be able to vote. You may need to go through a few extra steps, but the poll workers will walk you through every step of the process.
