Court of Appeals for the First Circuit May 23, 1996, 95-1982 (Paula Werme v. Stephen Merrill, Governor of New Hampshire)

SELYA, Circuit Judge.

We must determine in the course of this appeal whether New Hampshire overstepped constitutional bounds by denying a recognized third party the right, enjoyed by the state’s two most popular political parties, to have election inspectors and ballot clerks present at the polls on Election Day.
