Well, New York is an ok place to visit!
They go from “purge” in the headline to “tidy up” in the first paragraph.
So a few legitimate voters were purged? So what. They can go and re-register fairly easily. That cost is well worth it to get rid of dead and illegal voters.
I’d like to see audits every election. Have a trusted outside investigator check 1,000 votes cast in each state. If there are even 1% fraudulent votes, that is extremely likely to be detected. Prosecute every fraudster, and then carry on a more thorough investigation in those states with the highest levels of fraud in the initial audit.
If a state (California? Illinois? NJ?) has a particularly high fraud rate, investigate/validate every vote cast. If we find illegals voting, prosecute them, deport them, and pay their home countries to imprison them for five or more years (plus ban illegals who vote from ever returning to the USA).
This has happened in other places.
I often thought some of it was done intentionally by democrats in the election offices to discredit the process of cleaning up the voter roles.
The local government in cities where voters are concentrated are generally democrat.
And the last thing democrats want is to have only live, legitimate voters registered.
Make everyone register every 4 years. I’d prefer every election, but every 4 years sees like a reasonable compromise.
Show up in person at your convenience over 4 years to show proof of citizenship and residency and get your voter registration card. Then show up in person to vote with your card and ID. Sorry if you can’t manage to register in 4 years or are out of town on voting day/week (exceptions for military ).
Voting should not be so simple that voter fraud is easy. Whether or not voter fraud exists, the perceived integrity of our system is low, and that is a big problem. These steps are not difficult for most people. And the money spent fighting “fixes” could easily be used to get IDs and voter cards for everyone who wants to vote (e.g. help getting proof of identity and rides to the registration locations). If a party expects/needs votes from people who don’t want/care to vote or are not eligible to vote then they have a problem that these steps won’t “fix”.
Yeah, let’s never clean up the voter rolls because someone may be inconvenienced LOL. The opposition party (the press) is so divorced from reality it’s laughable.
Here they purged you if you missed voting in 2 Federal elections and you had to re-register.
How about the fake tax refunds.
There’s a simple answer to all of this and that is to re-register everyone. I’m certain there would be lawsuits filed and protests from the minority voter nullification corner but it’s a solution.
If the Registrars of Voters have not seen “proof of citizenship”, then their voter registration rolls are not valid.
So there’s no possible solution to illegal voting, immigration fraud, basically ANYTHING the Dems depend on. So just give up and bend over . . .
ML/NJ
Have never understood why we just don’t scrap the current data base and have everyone that wants to register to vote to do IN PERSON by, for instance, June 30. Info could be entered into a national data base which would be used by all states. Why is this so difficult?
Wasn’t there an audio recording made of a candid conversation at a party by a NY elections official describing how the fraud took place?
Oh gosh it’s sure hard to keep accurate voting rolls!
Most places in days gone by used to purge a voter if they hadn’t voted in two presidential elections
It doesn’t matter. I don’t vote in NYC - I’m honest.
Simple remedy, All voters in every state should be mandated to produce proof of USA citizenship (valid birth certificate, etc., and, government photo ID before being allowed to vote, period!!!
