      Definitely make sure the people you know in NC check their registration.

      There are legitimate reasons to pare the voter rolls and this has been happening over two years giving folks ample time to reregister but it ALWAYS feels like an attempt to disenfranchise voters of one party and not the other.

      ~~Its important to do this right before the deadline /s~~ 

       Cheaters through and through

      Why the fuck does america make people have to register to vote? Why not ”register” everyone on there 18th birthday and only deregister on death, like every other country does 🤨

      I read the article and this removal occurred over the past 20 months, not all at once recently the way the title implies.

      That said, check your registration and double check it.

      >The state is also home to a tough gubernatorial contest between Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson and Democratic Attorney General Josh Stein.

      SRSLY? That race is still close?

      >In the GOP lawsuit, a Wake County resident in North Carolina claimed that voter registration forms in that county did not included driver’s license and Social Security numbers.

      Let me get this straight. The would-be voters are not alleged to have done anything wrong. They just filled out the forms provided by the state. But you’re claiming the forms provided by the state were flawed, so people who relied on them shouldn’t be allowed to vote?

      These moves are *anti-democracy* and should be federally illegal. There is no reason to do this other than to disenfranchise certain subsets of voters.

      It’s a shame seeing democracy die like this to a bunch of fascists. Hope these tactics don’t succeed.

      Oregon has it’s problems, but it’s voting system is probably the best in the country. Early mail in voting up to dropping off in ballot boxes the day of.

      >or because they did not participate in the past two federal elections, prompting an inactive status.

      Inactive status is an absolutely insane idea. Something that is a person’s right in this sort of case should by no means be under a ‘use it or lose it’ sort of law

      These Republican clowns are unrelenting.
      The idea that these mentally deranged cheating frauds want to inflict American with another Trump dumpster fire of shit would be funny if it wasn’t so tragic.

      >the majority of those stripped from the rolls were deemed ineligible to be registered because they had moved within the state and did not register their new address, or because they did not participate in the past two federal elections, prompting an inactive status.

      “**The majority**”?!

      Those are insane reasons to remove such a huge percentage of voters from registration.

      It should be a federal crime to remove voters from the rolls withing 90 days of an election.

    23. teytah on

      Inactive just means I didn’t vote in the last non-presidential election but am still eligible to vote, right?

    27. donkeybrisket on

      With a couple weeks until the election? The fix is in, folks. Fuck the GOP; Vote Harris

    29. JLeeSaxon on

      Even if you assume the reasons for every one of these removals was 100% valid, that they wait until *very* close to the deadline to re-register remains suspicious. Do it in June and maybe we can have a different conversation.

    30. MrBalance1255 on

      Go after the people who removed the names. They’re the ones taking your freedoms away!

      What a shit system. Once registered, if nothing changes about your status, you should remain registered forever.
