On February 14, the New Hampshire House Elections Committee defeated HB 384, which would have set up a committee to study the state’s ballot access laws. All the Republicans on the Committee voted against the bill; all the Democrats supported the bill. Republicans have a majority in the New Hampshire House. Thanks to Darryl Perry for this news.
I think its because the Republicans have the most to lose from a viable Libertarian party in NH
There are two members of the committee who were endorsed by the New Hampshire Liberty Alliance (Rep. Dean-Bailey & Rep. Silber). One of those reps (Dean-Bailey) made the ITL motion.
