Another Democrat Steal? New Hampshire Senator Maggie Hassan Gets 1,100 Votes From Town With Under 700 Residents

Incumbent Democrat Senator Maggie Hassan won reelection for U.S. Senate in New Hampshire.

Hassan defeated Republican challenger Donald Bolduc 53.6% to 44.4%, according to the Associated Press.

Roughly 57,000 votes separated the two candidates.

But it appears there were possibly some election shenanigans in the New Hampshire race.

Hassan allegedly earned about 1,100 votes in a small town with a population under 700.

Comment Maggie Hassan a-t-elle obtenu 1100 votes dans la ville de NH avec une population de moins de 700 personnes?https://t.co/l1oynLIcCg

Granite Grok reported:

We’ve got something for you if you’re looking for irregularities in your local elections. Columbia, New Hampshire. It’s way up north. A tiny little town that, according to the 2020 US Census, had 695 residents. But according to the Secretary of State, Maggie Hassan received 1,106 votes from the same town.

Don Bolduc had 193 votes.

The State Website reports Columbia, NH, had 735 residents in 2019. Columbia, NH’s website says the population in 2010 was 798. Wikipedia cites a decline based on the 2020 census to 695.

How were over 1300 votes cast in a town with a population under 700 at least and under 800 at best?

Someone up there might want to request the same-day registration list. Your town doubled in size overnight.

Local officials are now calling this a “glitch” and they corrected it locally.

But the number is still being reported in the totals.

Cont. from Granite Grok:

…and this seems the most likely reason, but now we’ve got something else to consider. The total for the county for Maggie Hasan includes the typo.

Her actual total (assuming the typo) is 6059, which means Bolduc won Coos County. It’s only 1000 votes, you say, and in this race, that’s not much. Hassan won by over 57,000 votes. But it does beg the question; are there any more typos?

And can they or do they matter?
