New Hampshire last voted for a Republican, George Bush, in 2000, and although Trump did not win New Hampshire, the county results were exactly the same in 2000 and 2016 . The deciding factor, however, were the margins . </P> <P> On September 7, 2017, state House speaker Shawn Jasper announced that data showed that 6,540 people voted using out - of - state licenses . Of those, only 15% had received state licenses by August 2017 . Of the remaining 5,526, only 3.3% had registered a motor vehicle in New Hampshire . In addition to the close vote for president, Democratic Senator Maggie Hassan defeated incumbent Republican Kelly Ayotte by 1,017 votes . In February 2017, President Trump had told a gathering of senators at the White House that fraudulent out - of - state voting had cost him and Ayotte the election in New Hampshire . Mainstream media disputed Trump's and Japser's assertion . New Hampshire law permits New Hampshire residents to vote using out - of - state identification if they are domiciled in the state, out - of - state college students attending schools in New Hampshire being one example of such legitimate use of out - of - state identification . </P>
