You can claim almost anything to cast a vote in New Hampshire, a vote that could result in the expense of millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of dollars annually. One vote could be all it takes.
All you need to exercise that fiscal power in the Granite State is to show up on election day, and claim that you intend to “live” in New Hampshire, at least until you’ve voted. After that you are under no obligation to pay the price of that vote. You can depart the state immediately leaving actual residents to pay the price of your actual intent; to steal a vote.
But if you want to transfer the title of a motor-vehicle in the town of Henniker, New Hampshire, you are required to provide actual proof of residency. And a drivers license is not sufficient. The clerk made it clear to our reader that the transaction could not possibly be sanctioned with just a drivers license as proof or identity and residence.
Compare that, to this.
If you have no ID nor proof of domicile in the Granite State you can sign a piece of paper at the polling place swearing you live here (or were at least willing to consinder it) to get a ballot and vote. This means that is is OK with the state if you lie about where you actually live to decide who (and by extension how) millions of other people’s dollars will be collected from them and spent. But if you need to transfer a vehicle title from yourself, to (say) your son, and need to show proof of residency, you need a notarized letter — to prove residency.
To get the notarized letter you will need….your drivers license.
Proof of transfer of property might be serious business, but it is not more serious than voting to allow politicians and bureaucrats to look for ways to legally plunder property from the comfort of Town Hall, Concord, or points more distant.
The system is screwed up.
It is aiding and abetting the theft of your property through legislators elected by people who have no right to choose them.
The Secretary of State says the problem is real but he can do nothing to stop it.
Isn’t it ironic that the only way to change that is through a popular vote that we know is polluted by the ‘voices’ of those most interested in keeping things exactly as they are?
