  • Do not distribute a deepfake of a candidate, election official, or party on the ballot within 90 days of an election, unless you disclose that the media was manipulated or generated by artificial intelligence.
  • Use the exact disclosure wording the statute prescribes, sized or paced so an average viewer or listener will notice it.
  • A targeted candidate or election official may sue for damages; this does not apply to an interactive computer service host, a recipient with no reason to know the material was a deepfake, qualifying news coverage, or paid political ads that keep their sponsor's disclaimer.

  • A person harmed by a violation may sue you for damages under a separate civil action, in addition to criminal prosecution.
  • This does not reach an interactive computer service displaying another party's content, a bona fide news report that discloses the deepfake's questionable authenticity, a paid political communication that keeps its sponsor's own disclaimer, or satire or parody not reliant on AI impersonation.

  • A violation is prosecuted as a misdemeanor, not a felony, under RSA 639:3, III-a.
