The National Voter Registration Act was passed to require States to clean up their voter registrations. Before President Obama took office, many States complied with the National Voter Registration Act and regularly cleaned their rolls. However, President Obama filed lawsuits against many States to prevent them from complying with the National Voter Registration Act. A clear act to defy the law and force the States to violate the law as well. President Obama claimed it deprived people of their right to vote, in spite of the fact that the majority were people who had died or moved out of State and were no longer eligible to vote. Ohio went ahead and cleaned their rolls anyway but the federal government took them to court and the court ordered Ohio to reinstate them. As a result, records showed that there was probably between 3-5 million people on the rolls in Ohio that weren’t eligible to vote. That left a great deal of potential for fraud. Ohio appealed it to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court ruled that Ohio did not violate federal laws in cleaning up its voter rolls by removing the names of those who had not voted for several years. While it did say not voting alone was not an acceptable reason for removing them, since Ohio seeks to contact the person and if after notification the person still doesn’t vote, then it is permissible to remove them. Six other States have similar laws which means 43 States do not have laws protecting the integrity of their voting by removing those who do not vote. Judge Alito in the majority opinion stated that about 1 in 8 voter registrations are invalid or inaccurate allowing people to use those names fraudulently. It is not strange that dead people and those people voting in multiple States usually vote for Democratic candidates since Democrats are the ones fighting to keep these names on the rolls. Without a voter ID law, anyone can go to the voter rolls, pick out someone who hasn’t voted in a couple years and go to the polls claiming to be that person. Since the name of the person they claim to be is on the rolls, and they are not asked for identification, they could vote. Research showed that the man compiling the information was registered in three States, though he did not realize it. He had moved and not canceled his registration in the old State. Most people don’t cancel their voter registration when they move out of State, and most States don’t cross check voter registrations with death records. While Donald Trump urged States to comply with the act, many States controlled by Democrats refused. By not cleaning the rolls, it leaves a lot of ineligible voters registered which leaves a large pool of names for those who seek to stuff the ballot box with illegal votes by creating fake ballots under the names of those who haven’t voted. Judicial Watch, a political watch dog group, has uncovered evidence that at least 11 States, with a total of over 100 counties have more registered voters than people of eligible age to vote and have warned the counties that if they don’t make a reasonable effort to clean up their rolls, Judicial Watch will file a lawsuit against them to compel them to comply with the law. Private citizens should not have to go to court to compel States to obey federal law.
