New Hampshire House Speaker Bill O'Brien is trying to deny students the right to vote in the towns where they attend school. Although he says he wants to limit the Constitutional rights of Granite Staters because of "voter fraud," his real motivation is crystal clear: he doesn't want young people voting for Democrats.

This proposed legislation, which would bar students from civic participation in the community where they go to school, is not only unethical, it is also unconstitutional. We must stop the NH Legislature from taking away young people's fundamental right to participate in our democracy especially for such blatantly partisan purposes.
