The Republican National Committee sues Michigan over the state's voter rolls
NBC News ^

Posted on 03/14/2024 3:45:51 AM PDT by Tench_Coxe

The Republican National Committee sued Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, a Democrat, on Wednesday in an attempt to force election officials to trim down the state’s voter rolls.

The lawsuit, which was filed in federal court, argues that Michigan is violating the National Voter Registration Act’s requirement to maintain clean and accurate vote registration rolls.

(snip)

Still, there’s no evidence that bloated voter rolls lead to voter fraud, even as Republicans increasingly seize on the rolls as a focus of their election activism.

Amazing what a change in leadership can do, almost as though previous leadership seemed to be "working for the other side".

The last bit is bs, if not an outright lie.

“.. that bloated voter rolls lead to voter fraud..” This would be laughable it it weren’t so tragic.

Only because the MI-GOP is run by a handful of Democrat-cuckolded weenies.
Worse than RINOs.

Sample of Michigan evidence - 2020 election:

11,806 ballots were cast in the names of deceased voters in MI

my reply 48 - the count by cities (limited display - there were so many)

my reply 61 - the count by counties

That was my thought also. Just an obvious way for DemoncRATS to steal elections.

Ummm - bloated voter rolls mask the actual fraud - places that showed 110% turnout really had 160% turnout...

The SCOTUS 9-0 decision tells me that a state can’t decide a national election by banning a candidate then the state has an obligation to see to it that only properly registered voters cast a ballot. Shouldn’t the Federal Election Committee be able to compare voter rolls in every state? People voting in multiple states has long been reality.

“Still, there’s no evidence that bloated voter rolls lead to voter fraud“

Who writes things like this?
The voter roles, in a contentious political society, aren’t bloated by accident. They are bloated for a purpose, and that purpose is ballot stuffing. Michigan claims to be intelligent and vigilant in its government, and when it’s not there is a reason.

Now, they move the goal post and say that fake voters don’t influence elections. Obviously, if they do not then why not clean the voter roles when asked? The answer is also obvious. One side can’t win without ballot fraud.

Hit the western counties where many part time residents from Chicago have summer homes. When they die out of state they instantly become New Democrat voters at death.

“Still, there’s no evidence that bloated voter rolls lead to voter fraud“
@@@@@@

One must remember that without a lawsuit where evidence is entered into the record during discovery “ there is no proof”, so no evidence that voter fraud exists.

With a judiciary in on the fix “you have no standing to challenge “ there can never be evidence put into the record as proof.

“What a country!” In my best Yakov Smirnoff “

I think that is one of the best ways to keep the voter rolls clean would be to purge all voter registrations six months after every Presidential election.

People would then be required to physically show up and re-register. Too lazy to register...your probably too lazy to be familiar with the issues. The trick will be to ensure that every state registration location is actually following the law regarding registration.

Re: "Lara Trump hit the ground running."

I saw her on Fox News claiming that vote harvesting is essential for the GOP to win.

What kind of Republican or Conservative would voluntarily hand his ballot to a vote harvester?

That is truly pathetic.

What percent of GOP harvested ballots will be from people who actually vote for Democrats?

Apparently there is no limit to how much bias you can pack into a “news” article

NBC Author Jane Timm states: "“At least 53 Michigan counties have more active registered voters than they have adult citizens who are over the age of 18. That number of voters is impossibly high,” the lawsuit said. “An additional 23 counties have active-voter registration rates that exceed 90 percent of adult citizens over the age of 18. That figure far eclipses the national and statewide voter registration rate in recent elections. ...snip... Still, there’s no evidence that bloated voter rolls lead to voter fraud....” Sure Jane!

NBC: They can state the predicate facts, but will not acknowledge the conclusion or even possibility that proceeds from those facts!

"No Evidence"; Won't look....Paid not to See.

"Do Not Look and Do Not See! No evidence Here! says NBC!"
