Frozenbeernuts 1,812 Posted October 30 This has happened in a few states. Liberals, do you not see what they are pulling? Are you OK with the left encouraging non citizen voters to vote in our election? If the left is willing to go to these lengths to win, they will stop at nothing to get their way. https://www.dailysignal.com/2024/09/30/biden-harris-justice-department-follows-splc-script-on-noncitizen-voting-cases/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RLLD 3,845 Posted October 30 The Democrats allegiance to this nation and its constitution only extends to instances where they can use it to secure power. Allowing noncitizens to vote in their estimation should be allowed since it might help them secure power. Now, if the Republicans thought it would help THEM.....they would support it as well....

Sean Mooney 1,723 Posted October 30 Yes- The far right Daily Signal is on the up and up on this. It's what always happens- a kernel of truth blown into a full fledged story by adding opinion as fact or spouting overinflated data as fact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike Honcho 4,587 Posted October 30 And for those wanting the story with less of a spin. Quote Office of Public Affairs The Justice Department announced today that it has filed a lawsuit against the State of Alabama and the Alabama Secretary of State to challenge a systematic State program aimed at removing voters from its election rolls too close to the Nov. 5 general election, in violation of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA). “The right to vote is one of the most sacred rights in our democracy,” said Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division. “As Election Day approaches, it is critical that Alabama redress voter confusion resulting from its list maintenance mailings sent in violation of federal law. Officials across the country should take heed of the National Voter Registration Act’s clear and unequivocal restrictions on systematic list maintenance efforts that fall within 90 days of an election. The Quiet Period Provision of federal law exists to prevent eligible voters from being removed from the rolls as a result of last-minute, error-prone efforts. The Justice Department will continue to use all the tools it has available to ensure that the voting rights of every eligible voter are protected.” Section 8(c)(2) of the NVRA, also known as the Quiet Period Provision, requires states to complete systematic programs aimed at removing the names of ineligible voters from voter registration lists by no later than 90 days before federal elections. The Quiet Period Provision applies to certain systematic programs carried out by states that are aimed at striking names from voter registration lists based on a perceived failure to meet initial eligibility requirements — including citizenship — at the time of registration. The Quiet Period is an important protection for voters, because systematic removal programs may be error-ridden, cause voter confusion and remove eligible voters days or weeks before Election Day who may be unable to correct the state’s errors in time to vote or may be dissuaded from voting at all. States may remove names from official lists of voters in various ways and for various reasons, but they may not carry-on this kind of systematic removal program so close to a federal election. On Aug. 13, the Secretary of State announced the launch of a “process to remove noncitizens registered to vote in Alabama.” This was 84 days before the Nov. 5 general election. The Justice Department’s review found that both native-born and naturalized U.S. citizens have received letters stating that their voter record has been made inactive and that they have been placed on a path for removal from Alabama’s statewide voter registration list. The letter directs recipients who are in fact U.S. citizens and eligible to vote to complete and submit an attached State of Alabama Voter Registration Form. In turn, that form instructs that people may not register to vote in the 14 days before an election. This systematic voter removal program, which the State is conducting within 90 days of the upcoming federal election, violates the Quiet Period Provision. The Justice Department seeks injunctive relief that would restore the ability of impacted eligible voters to vote unimpeded on Election Day and would prohibit future Quiet Period violations. The department also seeks remedial mailings to educate eligible voters concerning the restoration of their rights and adequate training of local officials and poll workers to address confusion and distrust among eligible voters accused of being noncitizens.

Sean Mooney 1,723 Posted October 30 8.2 million voters in Georgia on the voting rolls. 20 of them were non citizens and 9 voted in the 2020 election- Trump lost Georgia by 12,000 votes. For those that don't know- 12,000 is considerably larger than 9. 3200 people were removed from the rolls in Alabama and then they had to add 2000 back when they realized they were wrong on the citizenship status of those people. In some scenarios someone can be flagged if they became a naturalized citizen since the last time they had to file a government document. Youngkin's case in Virginia is under review because the judge raised an eyebrow at the idea that it was filed exactly at the 90th day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just a coincidence https://www.themainewire.com/2024/10/maine-welfare-clerk-gave-voter-registration-forms-to-paroled-illegal-alien-from-venezuela-says-spanish-interpreter/ and of course the state refuses to investigate https://www.themainewire.com/2024/10/top-maine-democrats-decline-to-investigate-full-scope-of-noncitizen-voting/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it's ineffective, than it can be changed, but that's what the law is now. So the OP and the Daily Caller should stop mis-characterizing what is actually happening.
