More than 5,000 out-of-state voters may have tipped New Hampshire against Trump
Same Day Voter Registration
New Hampshire House Speaker Shawn Jasper, a Republican, issued the numbers Thursday based on inquiries he made to the Department of State, which oversees elections, and the Department of Safety.

Another day, another thread claiming that "massive voter fraud" is proven by the continual efforts that States go through to keep their voter rolls as accurate as possible.

Overall, the towns that see the highest rates of out-of-state IDs used at the polls are all home to college campuses: the University of New Hampshire (Durham, with some spillover in Dover and Portsmouth), Dartmouth (Hanover and Lebanon), Keene State University (Keene), Franklin Pierce University (Rindge), Plymouth State University (Plymouth), Saint Anselm University (near the border of Goffstown and Manchester), New England College (Henniker) and Southern New Hampshire University (Hooksett).
This data doesn't do anything to prove, on its own, that New Hampshire's elections are being infiltrated and influenced by out-of-state voters trying to game the results.
When asked if he had any reason to doubt the legitimacy of last year’s election outcome, Gardner replied: “No.”

Where Were Out-of-State IDs Used to Vote in New Hampshire Last November?
Overall, the towns that see the highest rates of out-of-state IDs used at the polls are all home to college campuses: the University of New Hampshire (Durham, with some spillover in Dover and Portsmouth), Dartmouth (Hanover and Lebanon), Keene State University (Keene), Franklin Pierce University (Rindge), Plymouth State University (Plymouth), Saint Anselm University (near the border of Goffstown and Manchester), New England College (Henniker) and Southern New Hampshire University (Hooksett).
The data is directly from the New Hampshire Secretary of State who is a phone call (at most) away from both Kris Kobach and the Speaker. It's perfectly legal for college students to vote in New Hampshire elections so long as they don't also vote in their home state.

5,000 votes is too small a pool, in any case, if you intended to rig an election. You're going to want your candidate to win even if the odds suddenly turn against them, so you need to buy or confirm over half the votes in the state.

So you are totally good with me going to NH and voting there? Awesome!
What is wrong with just making sure everything is beyond reproach? How do you explain more votes than people registered in some areas?
Since Election Day, Republicans have charged that a significant number of nonresident Democrats, principally from Massachusetts, flowed into New Hampshire to vote illegally, tilting a close race to their party.
“Having worked before on a campaign in New Hampshire, I can tell you that this issue of busing voters into New Hampshire is widely known by anyone who’s worked in New Hampshire politics. It’s very real. It’s very serious. This morning, on this show, is not the venue for me to lay out all the evidence,” White House policy adviser Stephen Miller told ABC News in February.

I think the bigger issue, is that if you have thousands of people organized and ready to commit voter fraud, you're simply not going to keep that a secret. Information will get out and the election will be declared compromised. Keeping a secret with 2 people is hard, when thousands are involved, it's going to be impossible.

I dunno, to me gerrymandering is voter fraud, maybe they're just trying to circumvent an already fraudulent act.

Right, because no one could ever fake an ID....
Fool-proof, that's funny in this context.
