GA To Ask Voters If They Remain Active Against VRA Rules


Georgia Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger (R) announced, on Thursday, that the State is taking Steps to Update its Voter Rolls, by Contacting more than 185,000 Voters who have Not interacted with the Election System, for at least Five years, to see if they are still Active.

Raffensperger said he Ordered Georgia's Election Officials to mail No-Contact Notices to 185,666 People who have Not had any Contact with the Election System. in the previous Five calendar years.

The Secretary said Nno Contact means the Voters have Not Voted, requested an Absentee Ballot, Signed a Petition or Updated their Registration by Changing their Address or Renewing their Driver's License.

Additionally, None of those People Voted in the 2020 General Election or Runoff Races.

If those Individuals do Not respond within 30 days, their Registrations will be marked as "Inactive." That Status, however, will Not Prevent Voters from Casting a Ballot as they normally would, according to Raffensperger's Office, because they will Not realize that their Registration has been marked Inactive.

Voters that remain on theIinactive List for Two Additional Election Cycles, will be Mailed another Notice asking for Confirmation on their Registration. If they do Not Respond to that notice, their Registrations will be Canceled, according to the Secretary's Office.

The Problem with Georgia Purge Process, it Violates the Voting Rights Act (VRA).

The Act says:

1. After a Voter does Not Vote in Two Federal Elections, they should receive a Notice to Verify they want to stay on the Voter Rolls.

2. If they do Not Respond, they can be considered Non-Active on the Voter Rolls.

3. After a Voter does Not Vote in Two more Federal Elections, they should receive a Notice to Verify they want to stay on the Voter Rolls. If they do Not Respond, they can be Removed from the Voter Rolls.

It's time, the Department of Justice (DOJ), Voting Rights Division, Notifiy All States, to Review their Voter Purge Process, to be VRA Compliant.
