Nothing to see here, I'm sure. At least according to some of the usual suspects..... For those deniers, I'm sure that this is a problem in many states across the country.
Quote:A conservative legal group identified grave markers for various deceased Michigan residents still listed on the state’s voter rolls, video footage provided to The Federalist shows.
Published by the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF), the mini-documentary shines a light on the inclusion of long-deceased Michigan residents as active voters on the state’s voter registration lists. As shown in the video, some of these individuals have remained on the lists despite dying decades prior.
I said very early when this was being put in place during COVID....
That the only places at the time that had meaningful 'mail it in' voting were in the Pacific northwest... and they essentially ran it as a pilot for 10 years to address these specific issues... mostly ensuring that the voter rolls were as accurate as they could be... giving people two election cycles to vote in to remain active without challenge etc.
and then in a matter of months, we rolled this out nationwide without that pilot.
I don't care anymore if anyone cheated in the last election... I care if people can cheat in the next one... and you solve that by ending these stupid arguments against purging voter rolls. If people CAN cheat, the odds are that someone will.... So make it harder.

BINGO!
it why this ruling was monu-fk'n-mental ... I can't begin to describe how the pubs should be running roughshod in any of mail-it-inns ... overwhelm the courts, ya say ... watch this shite, mothertrucKKKers!!!
This is why it's important for as many states as possible to get off ERIC.
ERIC is a 3rd party service which manages voter rolls for 24 states and DE.
That number used to be 33 states and DC.
Michigan is one of the current ERIC members.
ERIC is paid for by member states. As states drop, the remaining states must pay a larger portion.
Quote:The Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan membership organization created by and comprised of state election officials from around the United States. Founded in 2012, ERIC is funded and governed by states that choose to join.
Anyway, ERIC will not remove people from voter rolls, as is evidenced by Michigan's information being discussed.
If every state maintained it's own list and actually removed invalid registrants, we might see a very different ratio of Dems to Reps.
Is Texas really turning blue? We may find out now that Texas has removed itself from ERIC membership. That, and after they clean up their voter registration rolls.
