A simple truth is at the root of many false election claims: Voter rolls are imperfect

At the heart of many election conspiracy theories is a simple truth: America’s voter rolls are imperfect.

The U.S. doesn’t have a central voting list. It has a bunch of different lists. And they will always be slightly off.

Charles Stewart, an election data expert at MIT, remembers being at a conference 20 years ago, and an election official from Belgium was talking about voter rolls.

“He said, ‘The problem with you Americans is that you were never conquered by Napoleon,’” Stewart recalled. “Napoleon wanted to know where everybody was.”

Who gets paid to write this convoluted headline?

It is not that the voter lists contain illegal immigrant voters, the problem is the voter lists are slightly less than perfect.

Hye, MILES - I got a voter registration card for someone I've never met, in a house that I've lived in for 22 effing years.

My greasy election-rigging secretary of Soros assures us that that person will be taken off the voter rolls after two more "elections".

Voter rolls are imperfect

Translation: Fraud exists but since it doesn’t affect our guys, all is good.

The clown who wrote this article needs to take a field trip to Seattle and go to the King County Courthouse downtown.

He will find many hundreds of homeless people who are registered there—but none of them live there.

This is blatant fraud, not a minor error.

Perfect voter rolls are impossible, but the flaws should be as minimal as possible. They’ve had 4 years to rectify errors.

my wife and I moved into a retirement facility in Pennsylvania a year ago, from New Jersey. Yesterday she got a forwarded mailer informing her she was up for Jury duty back in New Jersey.. I’m sure these are keyed from voter rolls so I called the number to remove her from both. I was told I couldn’t do that over the phone and I had to go on-line to adjust. The form took a half hour to fill out. I’m sure her and my names ae still on the NJ voter rolls. My daughters were listed there 12 years after she moved out.

It’s just that they are WAYYYY more imperfect in Democrat controlled areas.

The fundamental question is who wants to fix the voter rolls, and who doesn’t want them fixed.

America’s voter rolls are imperfect.

So?

That doesn’t mean you just let them stay that way any more than you abandon a garden because a few weeds pop up.

My son moved from Washington in September. He’s been out of town on business for a few weeks, but in the mail we’re 2 different ballots, AZ ballot and Wash ballot! I threw out the Wash ballot.

The rolls are very bad in some states, not too bad in others.
Perfect, probably nowhere.
I am not sure how much is by design and fraudulent intentions and how much by just general government ineptitude.
COVID gave a cover and excuse for all kind of shenanigans in 2020. I think it has improved somewhat since (it just could not get any worse!), but there is a long way to go to fix all of it!
