| New Hampshire House of Representatives | |
The New Hampshire House of Representatives is the lower house in the New Hampshire General Court. The House of Representatives consists of 400 members coming from 103 districts across the state, created from divisions of the state's counties. On average, each legislator represents about 3,300 residents. If the same level of representation were present in the U.S. Congress, that body would have approximately 99,000 members, according to current population estimates. Members are paid a salary of $200 per biennium, as are New Hampshire State Senators.
Districts vary in number of seats based on their populations, with the least-populous districts having only one member and the most having 13. In multi-member districts, voters are allowed to cast as many votes as there are seats to be filled, which often results in one party winning all of the seats in the district. Some political scholars have argued that if the ranked-ballot method known as Single Transferable Vote were used, each party would win a number of seats proportional to its support among the voters.[1][2][3][4]
Unlike in many state legislatures, there is no "aisle" to cross per se, as members of both parties sit partially segregated in five sections, which is then put on the legislator's license plate (chairpersons and party leaders in green, non-chairs in red). Party seating location is not enforced, as seating is often decided on the personal preference of the legislator. The sixth section, which is the speaker's seat at the head of the hall, is an exception.
