The red state governments have been following the Trump/MAGA playbook on purging the voter rolls in their states.
According to a Florida Bulldog report, “Voter records from South Florida’s three most populous counties reveal similar declines. In Miami-Dade 85,640 voters were moved from active to inactive status, with 90.75 percent being Democrats and NPAs; in Broward, 190,876 were moved to inactive status, with 84.24 percent being Democrats and NPAs; in Palm Beach, the active voter rolls were sliced by 156,148 voters, 82.75 percent of whom were registered Democrats or NPAs.”
I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that Ron DeSantis and his pet Elections Supervisor put passing an election purge bill at the top of their priority list and that it’s wildly over-purging Democrats. It’s a total coincidence.
Over 7 million people have been purged nationally in the last year. One voter-modeling expert told me she believes about 2 million are legitimate drops — people who have died or moved out of state — but that most are driven by a deliberate winnowing plan to remove Democratic and NPA (non-party affiliated) voters from the registration rolls.
Have you checked yours lately?
If you live in a red state and haven’t voted as recently as two years ago, you may have been purged from the voter rolls. Almost every state allows you to check your voter registration status online. Vote.org can also help.
Do you have a current approved voter ID for your state? If you live in a red state, Voter ID laws passed in the last 2-4 years may invalidate your ID, particularly if you’re a non-driver. Need help with Voter ID? Contact Vote Riders, the leading national organization that helps people understand and obtain valid voter identification in their states.
If you can vote early, do it. If you can vote absentee, do it. (Those are getting harder, also, but we’re not quite to “only white male landowners” as the voting criteria.
Clausewitz says, “The activities characteristic of war may be split into two main categories: those that are merely preparations for war, and war proper.”
Ballot access doesn’t just mean candidates getting on the ballot, no matter what Trumptard Richard Winger and his hate-filled band of commenters tell you.
Ballot access also means voters’ right to get a ballot.
A word to any sane people who still read this godforsaken website.
“Trumptard Richard Winger ” ??
Rick, “ballot access” has been defined to mean candidates being on the ballot since 1940. To use “ballot access” to refer to voting rights is not good use of words. It is not good to use the same term to mean two different things.
As an example of “ballot access” referring to candidates being on the ballot, see Ralph Nader’s 1958 article in the Harvard Law Record, dated October 9, 1958. The title and sub-title are: “Do Third Parties Have a Chance? Ballot Access and Minority Parties.”
Rick = known troll Robert K St0ck.
Richard Winger is a communist. He hates Trump and loves Harris. He supported her for Senate.
Stop trolling, I was suspecting that too. Nobody is seriously that Ass backwards from reality.
