“Despite being aware of their alleged claims months ago, the plaintiffs have waited until two weeks before the start of voting to seek a court-ordered program to remove thousands of existing registered voters. Federal law itself prevents such removal programs if they take place after the 90th day before a federal election, which was August 7. So, the lawsuit is asking for a rapid-fire voter removal program that violates federal law.”

Scotus just ruled on a similar suit in nevada. It was a split decision, ruling changes could take affect going forward, not back.

But who knows what they will say here.

Think. Again.

FIRST:
Check registration deadlines in any state here:

https://www.usvotefoundation.org/state-election-dates-and-deadlines

THEN:
Check your registration (and let others know they can check theirs) at these sites:

https://iwillvote.com/
(Be sure to choose YOUR state)

https://www.vote.org/

https://vote.gov/

Check your voter registration often, especially if you live in a state where republicans have any access to voter rolls or can effect voter registrations in ANY way.

See ya in November!
