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.

    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.

        My state drivers license should do the trick. It even showed up on their website for a couple months and then suddenly I don’t know who you are anymore. Ridiculous. I know we had one law passed for purging voter rolls and another which greatly restricted how long a voter registration is valid. I suspect, to comply with that law, they just dumped the registrations.

        But I’m going to check over and over again and I’m going to vote. I’m going to vote as hard as I can.

      “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

        they didnt say they moved, different people aiming to remove democratic voters say they moved. And instead of “look into it” its just removal without notice
