Voting and a Felony Sentence
RSA 607-A:2 — no vote from a felony sentence until final discharge, and probation counts as discharged
Every inhabitant with a single established domicile for voting, who is a United States citizen of the age the state constitution sets, has the right to vote where they are domiciled.
Who handles this in New Hampshire: legal aid programs, lawyer referral and the state offices, listed in the New Hampshire directory.
Until final discharge. A person sentenced for a felony may not vote from the sentence until final discharge, meaning release from incarceration. A person on probation or parole is considered finally discharged.
