Ideally, voters ought to appear in person at the polls, on election day, show their picture ID, be checked off on the registered voter list, and then vote on a paper ballot. No ballots of any kind submitted or "discovered" after the polls close shall ever be counted. Absentee ballots should be provided only for voters who have a good reason not to be able to get to the polls on election day, such as members of the armed forces stationed overseas. Fear of contracting a disease is not a good reason for voting absentee. Ballots should never be mailed out to anyone. Absentee ballots must be picked up at town hall in person or by a friend or relative who has a picture ID and the voter's signed application form.
Ballots shall be counted by hand. Ballots shall be stored after counting in case of a request for a recount.
So far as I know, New Hampshire is in fairly good shape except for allowing the use of voting machines.
