Arizona slated to being voter roll cleanup

Democrats would love us all to believe there are no problems at all in our elections and voter rolls, and that they are nice and tidy.

That is not true though, but one state that has been a problem on this front is trying to clean up its act with the help of DHS. 

A simple truth

If you have read my reports on election fraud in the past, you know I don’t believe there is enough fraud to flip a presidential election, but I believe state and even more so, local elections, are at risk.

In many elections, we see the winner decided by under 1,000 votes, and sometimes that number is less than a hundred. I can still remember an election in Philadelphia that was decided by less than a dozen votes.

The biggest target for election fraud is in exposing the flaws in voter rolls, meaning taking advantage of rolls that have not been cleaned of residents who have passed away or moved out of the area.

This is a real problem, and while not all of these “dead” names are voting, it does open the door to possible fraud, and that is the problem. So why are states not maintaining their voter rolls better? This was a question even NPR was forced to examine.

Clean it up

America First Agenda is one of a handful of conservative organizations leading the push to ask state election committees to do their jobs and clean up their voter rolls.

A recent report from Judicial Watch found, “378 counties nationwide have more voter registrations than citizens old enough to vote, i.e., counties where registration rates exceed 100%.”

How is that even possible, and why are these committees not cleaning up voter rolls between elections? After all, what else do they have to do with all that downtime?

Just to give you an idea of how bad this problem is around the country, North Carolina recently removed 430,000 ineligible names from its voter rolls. In Michigan, 5,000 names that had been dead for about two decades were recently moved. Again, that does not mean votes were cast for these people, but the opportunity to cheat is there, and that is what we need to remove.

Fixing it

Arizona is the latest state to join the cleanup effort, which is shocking when you consider they still have a Democrat governor calling the shots.

After America First Legal sued the state on the premise of inaccurate voter rolls, the state reached an agreement with AFL to clean up its act, agreeing to remove about 50,000 names who have been deemed ineligible. Kristi Noem's Department of Homeland Security will help the state verify all eligible voters.

AFL Senior Counsel James Rogers stated, "This settlement is a great result for all Arizonans.”

This is not voter suppression like Democrats claim; this is just common sense.
