Resolution of Appeal to the New Hampshire Ballot Law Commission
Background
On the 21st day of November 2022, Mr. Lou Gargiulo filed an appeal to the NH Ballot Law Commission upon learning of certain irregularities in the process and procedures used to collect, transport and count ballots cast during the election held on November 8, 2022, and its subsequent recount for the District 24 Senate Seat.
Statement
Mr. Gargiulo’s intent in filing his appeal was to bring to light matters of great importance to all New Hampshire residents, regardless of party affiliation, as to the veracity of our elections and
their results. Lou Gargiulo, Candidate:
“Ensuring the accuracy of the process by which we select our leaders must be paramount for the State of New Hampshire’s officials, as well as our local town moderators and clerks. I am pleased to announce today that the Ballot Law Commission has agreed to allow me to present evidence to them that can only lead to positive change.”

Mr. Gargiulo took the opportunity at an informal pre-appeal meeting held this morning to clarify that his intent was to use his standing as a candidate to raise these important concerns. He further stated that his goal was not to overturn the election results, but to strengthen the process for the future.
“Making sure that legal safeguards relative to ballot security are followed, and that appropriate trainings and guidance be provided in the future to cities and towns throughout the state as needed is my only goal.”
He further took the opportunity to graciously congratulate Ms. Debra Altschiller on her success in the District 24 election, as he converted his appeal of the election results to an agreement to present to the BLC in early 2023.
Corey MacDonald, Esq., Counsel for Mr. Gargiulo:
“Mr. Gargiulo intends to focus his immediate efforts in collecting and presenting to the Ballot Law Commission, the concerning materials his team found, and to provide them with the insight needed to effect positive change for our great state. Mr. Gargiulo should be congratulated for using his standing in this race to bring areas for improvement to light.”
Mr. Lou Gargiulo, Candidate:
“Our elections and the processes by which we ensure their accuracy should be of the utmost importance to every New Hampshire citizen. We look forward to the opportunity to present our findings and concerns to the BLC, solely to ensure New Hampshire’s elections are the gold standard for current and future generations.” –
