Under RSA 654:39, Supervisors of the checklist/registrars, who are responsible for adding and removing names from their city or town’s voter checklist, must hold public sessions between April 1 and August 1 of 2026 to determine which voters on the checklist have not voted in any elections in the past five years and who have not registered since the 2024 State General  Election. These voters are required to re-register if they want to remain on the voter checklist and vote in future elections. 

Supervisors of the checklist must inform any voter eligible for removal, at least 30 days before removing their name from the voter checklist, that they will be removed from the checklist and need to re-register following the instructions in the letter/postcard. Supervisors of the  checklist/registrars are required by law to remove these voters from the voter checklist, no earlier than June 1, even if they know a voter still lives in town.  
Canterbury Supervisors of the Checklist will be meeting 
on Mon., May 11, 1-2 pm, Sat., June 20 from 2-3 pm, and 
Sat., Aug. 1 from 10-11 am in the meeting room at the town offices (Sam Lake House) to conduct the annual verification and re-registration process.
