Voting with McKenzie Taylor

New Hampshire Has Issues

Grab your passport! We're traveling to...your town clerk's office.

New Hampshire *loves* elections, but does it love helping eligible voters get registered to vote?

In this episode, Liz talks to McKenzie Taylor, the State Director of the New Hampshire Campaign for Voting Rights, about registering in person, voting in person, requesting to vote absentee in person...yet, they are able to have this conversation from inside a computer. Science!

Remember: you are eligible to vote in New Hampshire if (1) you are a US citizen, (2) you will be 18 years or older on or before Election Day, and (3) New Hampshire is your home.

New episodes on Tuesdays, which also happens to be the day elections take place...
