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

Okay, go register again, people! This shit is absolutely ridiculous.
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.

Cheaters through and through

you can check your state’s voter registration deadline from the website below if you haven’t registered yet. after you select your state, there should also be links for you to register/check registration status(registration lookup):
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.

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.

Who wants to bet many more democrats were deemed ineligible?

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

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.

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

This is just the beginning America. Watch what your beloved Republicans and Maga’s are going to do next. If they don’t cheat steel and lie, they’re gonna lose big time. So they’re doing it right to our faces.

How does the state know this if they did not register their new address…

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

The repugs are correct, this is a rigged election. Check your status and go vote!

It’s always interesting how they do this *right before* an election. It should be illegal to do this so close to an election.

I’ll never understand why people think it’s OK to remove voters for being “inactive”. That’s just insane to me. Fuck these fucking fuckers
