John DiStaso – Investigative Reporter?

Voter ID required except when its not
May I see Your NH Drivers License Please?

John DiStaso highlighted Republican Neal Kurk this week, whose daughter travels back and forth from Hawaii but votes in New Hampshire.  There seems to be some effort on DiStaso’s part to suggest that this is inappropriate.  It might be, except for one thing.  When asked to do so Neal Kurk’s daughter can present her current New Hampshire driver’s license.

So Kendra Kurk Anderson does keep and maintain a New Hampshire Driver’s License, with a New Hampshire address, and that’s all we ever really asked any college student or campaign worker to do before they claimed domicile to vote here.   It’s actually  easier than filling out a background check to buy a rifle at a New Hampshire gun show.

Meanwhile, John DiStaso, the investigative reporter that he is, after reporting this, never manages to follow this through to it’s logical conclusion.

If he is not trying to run cover for Martha Fuller Clark or even Jeanne Shaheen’s daughter M0lly–who lives and works in California but votes in New Hampshire, why didn’t he ask the next most important question.  When asked, could any of those people have produced a NH Drivers license?  Can Molly Shaheen show us her New Hampshire’s drivers license?

And if Kendra Kurk Anderson can send an absentee ballot all the way to NH from Hawaii, why can’t these college kids and campaign workers do that very same thing?  Most of them are from points much closer.

Why aren’t local reporters asking those questions?
