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.
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
In my state, the county Board of Elections (and their staff) is in charge of the voter rolls. They are employed by the state to do that job, and can be fired if they do a bad job. They also can have access to state vital records, and can take deceased voters off the rolls right away.
On the other hand, if we leave this job to unelected busybodies, then there is nothing keeping them from adding some extra names to their list, to harass neighbors they don’t think belong there.
