Supreme Court appears sympathetic to Ohio voter roll purge effort

The Supreme Court appeared sympathetic Wednesday to states that seek to prune their voting rolls by targeting people who haven't voted in a while.

In a case from Ohio, opponents of the practice called it a violation of a federal law that was intended to increase the ranks of registered voters. Justice Sonia Sotomayor said minorities and homeless people appear to be disproportionately kicked off the rolls.

But the court's conservatives and possibly also Justice Stephen Breyer indicated that they would uphold the state's effort.

Things have changed!

Bennie Smith, a Memphis computer programmer, discovered HOW this is done through a

" ... a GEMS tabulator—for Global Election Management System—which is a personal computer installed with Diebold software that sits in a windowless room in the county’s election headquarters.
The tabulator is the brains of the system.
It monitors the voting machines, sorts out which machines have delivered data and which haven’t, and tallies the results.
As voting machines check in and their votes are included in the official count, each machine’s status turns green on the GEMS master panel.
A red light means the upload has failed.

At the end of Memphis’s election night in October 2015, there was no indication from the technician running Shelby County’s GEMS tabulator that any voting machine hadn’t checked in or that any votes had gone missing, according to election commission e-mails obtained by Bloomberg Businessweek.
Yet as county technicians followed up on the evidence from Smith’s poll-tape photo, they discovered more votes that never made it into the election night count, all from precincts with large concentrations of black voters. ... "

Diebold Election Systems changed its name in 2006 to Premier Election Solutions.
Bloomberg's article titled How to Protect Against Election Day Hacking gives more proof of this by Memphis computer programmer Bennie Smith.

"... The method Smith used to catch the problem should be a playbook for any candidate, party or concerned citizen worried about the accurate tallying of their votes:
Smith snapped some pictures of printed voting tallies (known as poll tapes) at a high-turnout polling location and then compared the results there to the electronic tabulations.
This is a very good, if labor-intensive, way to check to ensure that votes are being counted correctly.

Smith has created a proof-of-concept program called Fraction Magic, showing how corrupt officials could tamper with GEMS to manipulate election outcomes.

Ending vote fraud is GAME OVER for the RATS.

Why would Ohio even have to go to the SC if dead people are still
on the rolls? Or if people are registered in multiple state to vote.

Because too many judges believe their brief is to block any conservative legislation or regulation by any means.

Besides stopping the plague of immigration, vote reform needs to happen. To leave both will ultimately destroy America.

If you’re registered in a particular place and fail to vote for a while it’s reasonable for officials to assume that you’ve either moved or are dead and,thus,your name should be dropped from the rolls.

It’s not like you can’t get your name back on the list by noting that you’re still alive and living in the district.

...It’s not like you can’t get your name back on the list by noting that you’re still alive and living in the district...

Just go down and re-register. All you have to do is be alive.

I live in a hamlet in the Nevada/Arizona area and have to use a box at the post office since there is no street delivery. Once a year we get a form we have to fill out that validates that we live at the address on file. Four lines and a signature.

There’s no reason that the State couldn’t do this for voter registration once in five or even 10 years to clear the books.

Completely agree.
