New Hampshire officials prepare for busy voting day with expected long lines
New Hampshire election officials are preparing for a busy voting day on Tuesday, with expectations of record turnout. Polling places will close at 8 p.m., and voters should anticipate long lines, especially during lunchtime and after work. Voters can bring notes and phones to assist with their ballots. Anyone in line at closing time will still be allowed to vote. Absentee ballots must be requested by Monday, and they will be counted alongside in-person votes on Election Day. Poll workers have received training to handle potential security issues. Local officials are encouraged to have police present to ensure a smooth voting process.
