Sununu Vetoes ‘No Excuse’ Absentee Voting

New Hampshire Gov Chris Sununu (R) vetoed the so-called “no excuse” absentee voting bill Friday, “warning it would erode the state’s vaunted political tradition of in-person participation at the polls,” the New Hampshire Union Leader reports.

“Advocates of the bill had wanted New Hampshire to join 28 other states and the District of Columbia, which allow voters to obtain an absentee ballot without having to give a reason for why they can’t make it to the polls.”
