They’re asking election administrators to use their data to purge voter registrations, which means names could be removed in a less public process than a formal voter challenge. The strategy could mean electors won’t be summoned in advance to defend their voting rights and the identities of those seeking to purge voters might not be routinely public.
Okay, so they’re asking the counties to remove dead people and people that have moved. They’re not just asking for random people to be taken off.
My registration has been removed three different times and I am very much alive and have lived at my current location for the past 10 years.
That’s what it says on the tin, but it’s a bad faith message. It’s an attack on the right to vote.
“All we’re doing is a free service. Hey, this group of 500 people, or this group of 800 people said they moved. Maybe you should look into it,” I don’t see that being in bad faith or being an attack on the right to vote
Yeah that’s totally under selling what they’re doing… What they’re actually doing is they are hitting up areas that tend to have more transient quote unquote populations and sending out flyers that look like junk mails saying if you don’t defend your rights within 90 days we’re stripping you of them.
There is no reason to use trickery or tactics to make it look like junk mail, The only reason the governor of Georgia was elected was because he was able to purge 400,000 legitimate voters off the poles as the Secretary of State. He won Governor by a margin of less than 100,000 which means he basically ensured his own election which is what the right wants to do cuz they can’t just straight win … cuz they want to do terrible things and nobody wants them to do them
Source?
What business is it of anyone if the rolls have too many names? People can still only vote once, and the system comes down hard on people who try and trick the system. It should be the State’s job to purge registrations after due process, not the voters’ (and certainly not some random busybody).
You’re just being naive to think that. Maybe a person can only vote once in their name, but they can fill out absentee ballots in other peoples names and drop them off in ballot boxes. Thats why having dead people and people that have moved on voter roles just invites fraud.
Yeah, but why do private individuals have to police voter rolls? It should be the state’s job to do that.
Why is that? The voters handle elections, count ballots, etc. You really want to trust the state (bureaucrats) to do it? Look at the DMV. They suck at everything they do, just like the government
