removing the requirement of more evidence than a campaign contribution to demonstrate that a vote, appointment or nomination was a corrupt practice.

Summary

HB 1255 proposes repealing RSA 640:1, which currently mandates that more proof than a campaign donation is needed to show a corrupt practice. By removing that safeguard, a contribution alone could be enough to trigger corruption allegations. The change would affect any public official or candidate whose actions are examined under the state's corrupt‑practice statutes.
