Election integrity advocates warn un-scrubbed rolls are ‘kindling’ for possible fraud

Some 7.2 million people are registered to vote in more than one state, according to data obtained this month by a voter-integrity law firm called the Public Interest Legal Foundation.
By itself, I’m not sure what that statistic means. I’ve lived in four states since 1997 and registered to vote in each one. I’m sure for a time I could have easily gone back to one of the old polling places and voted (since I’m a conservative and law-abiding that thought never crossed my mind).
Do states periodically purge their roles?
