Voter Registration Changes Since Nov (5 Battleground States)

various secretary of state websites | 7/7/2017 | LS

As many of you know, I've been tracking voter registration changes since November in 11 battleground states. In some rust belt states, the population is decreasing, so both parties may see a decline, but the numbers represented below, whether actual increase or decline are the NET gains of Republicans over Democrats since November.

PA Rs +104,000 (this is one of the states in decline, but Ds are falling much faster. This represents an additional net R gain of 2k in just a month.

NM Rs +11,218

NC (these numbers only came up recently) Rs +61k

AZ Rs +9,200 (this is a gain of an additional 4k net just in the last month).

FL Rs +49k (FL has seen a consistent shift to Rs since November).

Just a correction on my spelling.

According to the Know Your Memes website (www.knowyourmemes.com) I should have spelled that Dindu Nuffins.

The term is racist, too, according to Know Your Memes, because it makes fun of Amish Saints Trayv von Marteen and Michel Braun de Fergusson.

In my lifetime I never thought that I would see vouchers or charters, yet, our state has both ( but not to the extent that I would like.) The waiting lists for the charters and vouchers are HUGE! ...So...I expect that the legislators are feeling the pressure to expand both programs.

There is plenty of historical precedent of intractable institutions quickly unraveling seemingly overnight. Government schooling is not an exception. Some examples are the Reformation, The American Revolution, Jim Crow, and the fall of the Berlin Wall.

My job is to help people to see that godless government schooling is NOT politically, culturally, or religiously neutral and never has been. It is morally wrong to force citizens to pay for the godless indoctrination of their own or other’s children. Even if there is a rare government school that is academically successful, its worldview **is** godless and the children in these classrooms will learn to think and reason godlessly. They must just to cooperate. How could it be otherwise?

I agree we must work where we can. It is why, although in our 60s, my husband was a Cub Master and, together, we were den leaders. We did this for 7 years. We were also Sunday School leaders for many years. At the moment, though, we are doing other church work.

Thank you for doing your part in rescuing our nation’s youth and the future of this Republic.

The DemonRats are trying to gain citizenship for as many 'immigrants' as possible in an effort to COUNTER TRUMP DEPORTING ILLEGAL ALIENS WHO OF COURSE VOTE DEMONRAT. That's my take.

Partner, you got that right!

A lot of folks here on this forum probably already know the answer to this question.

Why was the state of "Arkansas" the only state that turned in its voter list for the 2016 election cycle???

All of a sudden I have this pain in my gut that tells me why???

Can I assume you have a large IRA account built up over your yrs of guaranteed Federal employment in addition to your bigger then SS pension?

Military members pay into social security, so they have that in any case. A postal employee who does twenty years in the National Guard would qualify for all three programs.

[MSF BU]

As illegal immigrants begin to go home this will have an impact not only on voter registration but also on redistricting as the census will reflect a lower population. I believe President Trump should insist on a by name census; absolutely no more estimates as regards population. You are either here and counted by name or you are not counted.

[MSF BU]

Exactly how much does this cost you per month? Ten bucks?

[mastertex]

This sounds like great news, however what I'd like to see are the raw numbers of both registered Dems and Reps....also it'd be nice to see the latest population numbers. I know of at least 5 States that have more voters than population....IE: dead folks voting, people crossing state lines to vote and Illegal voters in general.

Have at it. Go to the Sec State websites under “Elections.” it’s all there.

After a presidential election, some states (or local election boards) schedule their infrequent cleanup of voter rolls.

Typically they identify people who have not voted in 5 years (did not vote in 2012 primary or general and did not vote since) and move those from active to inactive status. Such a move has little significance on future vote counts.

They also check to state and federal death lists, which report about 98% of actual deaths and 0.5% of deaths to people still alive ... due to identity confusion mostly.

They also check for “movers”. Half the states allegedly participate in cross reference of new voters who are movers. Many movers in state. Surprisingly in state movers between election boards, or to addresses under the same election board are checked and “cleaned” less often than interstate.

Most vote fraud comes from voting in the name of a mover who is still on the rolls.

States “cleanup” results are usually available and need to be considered separate from results of those who literally change their party registration.

Of course, how many “movers” change their party registration at the same time? Typically, if one moves from a Democrat city to a Republican suburb the mover is more likely to change his party registration from Democrat to Republican for the sole reason that he is moving into a Republican area. Likewise when Republicans move into a Democrat city. Most people go with the majority and want to fit in.

Yes but the point is direction & trend. ALL favor GOP (even in declines) except CO, OR, and CA.

[spintreebob]

Declines in registration of people who don’t vote is not significant and should not be mixed with changes in those who do vote.

See if you can get an update on CT...I'm trying to see if the people leaving are R, D or I...

I believe in 2020 there'll be new battleground States...
