In August, Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen announced a plan to remove noncitizens from the voting rolls, citing 3,251 individuals who had registered to vote who were not American citizens.

The Justice Department is asking a federal court to reinstate eligible voters and require Alabama to inform anyone impacted that their ability to vote has been restored.

    So… Alabama admits they are completely incapable of processing voter registration applications? They processed these applications from non-citizens, registered them to vote in their system and issued voter registration cards to them. And now they are admitting their complete ineptitude at the very last minute.

    And in a second phase of astonishing ineptitude, Alabama is now purging citizens who are legally permitted to vote. It really sounds like they need some compulsory federal oversight in their voter registration process!

    Conservatives are just not good at governing.
