US Attorney’s Office in New Hampshire Establishes Election Day Hotline

CONCORD, NEW HAMPSHIRE – United States Attorney John P. Kacavas has announced the establishment of an Election Day hotline in coordination with the U.S. Justice Department’s nationwide Election Day program for the general election on November 4, 2014.

According to US Attorney Kacavas, “The freedom to vote without interference, discrimination, or hindrance is one of the most fundamental civil rights enjoyed by United States citizens. However, the integrity of the election process depends on the vigilance of all who participate. Information about discrimination or election fraud should be reported immediately to my office, the FBI, or the Civil Rights Division. The U.S. Attorney’s Office will act promptly and aggressively to ensure that those who seek to undermine the integrity of the election process are brought to justice.”

US Attorney Kacavas has appointed Assistant United States Attorney Mark Zuckerman to serve as the District Election Officer for the District of New Hampshire. Zuckerman will oversee the District’s handling of complaints of election fraud and voting rights abuses in consultation with Justice Department Headquarters in Washington. He will also monitor the Election Day hotline and can be reached at (603) 230-2503.

Federal law protects against crimes such as intimidating or bribing voters, buying and selling votes, altering vote tallies, stuffing ballot boxes, and marking ballots for voters against their wishes or without their input. It also contains special protections for the rights of voters and provides that they can vote free from acts that intimidate or harass them.

The franchise is the cornerstone of American democracy. We all must ensure that those who are entitled to the franchise exercise it if they choose, and that those who seek to corrupt it are brought to justice. In order to respond to complaints of election fraud or voting rights abuses on November 4, 2014, Assistant United States Attorney/DEO Zuckerman will be on duty in this District while the polls are open.

The FBI will have Special Agents available in each Field Office and Resident Agency throughout the country to receive allegations of election fraud and other election abuses on Election Day. The FBI can be reached by the public at (603) 472-2224.

Complaints about ballot access problems or discrimination can be made directly to the Civil Rights Division’s Voting Section in Washington at 1-800-253-3931 or 202-307-2767.
