On October 12, a New Hampshire lower state court will hold a hearing on the constitutionality of a state law, passed this year, that lets the qualified parties have the statewide list of registered voters for very little money, but denies it to all others. In New Hampshire, only the Democratic and Republican Parties are qualified parties. The case is New Hampshire Libertarian Party v Gardner, 2007-e-327, Merrimack Co. Superior Court.

In 1970 the U.S. Supreme Court summarily affirmed a lower court decision, saying that if states provide the list of registered voters to the qualified parties, they must also provide it to unqualified parties that are petitioning to get their nominees on the ballot. That case was Socialist Workers Party v Rockefeller. Given that precedent, it should be difficult for the New Hampshire law to be upheld.
