New Hampshire's electoral machinery is pretty standard stuff. A town moderator supervises Election Day activities.
See N.H.Rev.Stat. Ann. § 659:9. The moderator commands a cadre of other election officials, including inspectors appointed by the two political parties that received “the largest number of votes [cast] for governor in the state at the last previous general election....”
Id. § 658:2. Each such political party may appoint two inspectors per polling place, and one additional inspector for every 1,500 qualified voters in excess of 2,000 qualified voters registered at that polling place.
See id. If a political party fails to appoint inspectors, the town's selectmen fill the lacuna by naming inspectors from the ranks of that party.
See id. In turn, the moderator designates two election inspectors, one from each of the two parties, to serve as ballot clerks.
See id. § 658:25.
