Why would you assume that 700,000 people in Georgia are mostly lazy or stupid, rather than mostly “SOL”? You’re assuming they’re too lazy or stupid to fulfill the requirements. But the requirements are trying to push out the people who would struggle to deal with this. People who move around a lot. People without stable living conditions. People who might not speak the best english. People who don’t have time to obsessively comb political forums (be honest - did you hear about this outside of StraightDope?). And as has been pointed out several times, these letters are _easy to miss_ - there are a lot of people who just straight-up do not read direct mail. > [@Democracy is dead in Georgia](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/democracy-is-dead-in-georgia/822697/123): > > When the local telephone company was sold to a different company, the first bills they sent out had big, bold, lettering IMPORTANT NEW INFORMATION type crap.

How about **Snowboarder Bo**? Lazy? Stupid? Or is there _something else_ going on here? Most direct mail is _bullshit_. Everyone knows that. Most people just don’t have the time or interest to sift through it. _That’s why they’re doing it like this._ And the fact that _at least_ 100,000 legitimate voters got caught up in this should be an indication that it’s not just a matter of laziness or stupidity. It _cannot_ be this easy to strip someone of their rights. And it wouldn’t be such a big deal if Georgia had same-day registration or provisional ballots, two procedures that help ensure that minor snafus like this don’t turn into voter suppression. But it doesn’t. I’d say I wonder why, but let’s be honest, _I already know why_. > [@](#): > > At some point I should be treated as an adult. Adults don’t expect the government to feed them their rights with a spoon. No, but equally, adults should not expect the government to play this kind of “blink-and-you-miss-it” game with our fundamental rights. Remember, many of these people - tens of thousands of which _have not even moved_ - will go to the polls in November thinking that they’re still registered to vote and nothing has changed, and be turned away, because they did not return a direct mail postcard that looks like any other piece of direct mail marketing. And you’re okay with this, because they had their chance. A chance that one in ten registered voters apparently didn’t take. You want to tell me that most or all of those people were too stupid or lazy, and that therefore it’s okay to do this? For the sake of “keeping the rolls up to date”, something we have to do to prevent the _vanishingly_ rare issues of impersonation voter fraud and double voting? That’s just fucking bonkers. Also, “I don’t watch the news”? This wasn’t _in_ the fucking news until a few days before the deadline ended! :mad: ---

BPC, could you explain in some detail what you mean by 100,000 “legitimate” voters? I’ve only skimmed a couple of articles on this, but it seems that something like 1.5M voter registrations were struck from the rolls. Your focus on “100,000” makes it sound like you, and presumably the rest of the Democrats, don’t have a quibble with the other 1.4M. Is that right? If so, what’s the difference that makes these 100,00 special? Is it that the others were felons / dead / moved and these ones didn’t, but they failed to respond to the mailing and that’s why they were removed? Or did Kemp just throw a dart at a list of voters 100,000 times and just decided to strike them for the hell of it? ---

Here's his hit list. “But they have not moved,” notes Swedlund, who says not returning a postcard is an “absurd, dangerous” way to determine if voters have moved — especially if their rights are at stake. And basing cancellations on non-responses to postcards is, Swedlund notes, endemically biased against voters who move often, including the poor, students, and Black and Latino voters — in other words, Democrats. Notably, Swedlund’s analysts found that 108,000 of the names on Kemp’s hit list were also on the notorious “Interstate Crosscheck” list, which my investigations team had obtained from an insider in Kemp’s office as part of my investigations for Rolling Stone. The lists were created for Georgia by Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, President Donald Trump’s “fraudulent voter hunter.” Kobach himself, interviewed in Kansas, told me the list was sent to Kemp and others to indicate a voter had moved out of state. In fact, we went through each and every Crosscheck-tagged voter’s name — and **only 2,000 of the 108,000 Crosschecked voters who were purged have left the state**. And the majority of others purged had not moved from their original registration address. In simple terms, most of those whose registrations have been cancelled are legitimate Georgia voters. The purges have, in total, hit hundreds of thousands - something like 700,000 this year IIRC. It’s possible that some portion of those have left the state; very unlikely that it is all or even the majority of them. But we know _at least_ 100,000 were incorrectly purged, and that should be more than enough for _anyone_ to stop and say, “holy shit, _that’s not okay_!” ---

But can you please not show up in every thread of this type just to _gloat_ about it? It’s like if we had a guy who was like, “Yeah, I know what Erdogan is doing means the end of democracy in Turkey.

To be crystal clear, Georgia has never used data from the Crosscheck Program to conduct list maintenance in any capacity,” Kemp said in his statement. “Zero voters have been removed from the rolls based on Crosscheck data in this state. Greg Palast is completely blind to this indisputable fact in his pursuit of a sensationalist headline. Real journalists have already reported that Georgia does not use this data for list maintenance. Frankly, Mr. Palast should be embarrassed, and any credibility that he had left is now completely destroyed.” ---

In reality, laws often give the people executing and enforcing them discretion. This is the reason that the people who do enforce our laws are either elected, or appointed by people who get elected. For any case where an official abuses their power, the public backlash can cause them to lose their job, as long as it translates into voters voting against the elected official responsible. In this particular case, since the people directly affected by the abuse will not be able to vote, either the remaining voters who benefit from the abuse have to decide that it isn’t worth the erosion of rights and turn on the official (at the ballot box) or our institutions erode. ---

> [@Shodan](#): > > Adults don’t expect the government to feed them their rights with a spoon. I think this is one of the fundamental differences between right and left wingers. Those on the right expect people to take as much responsibility as they can, those on the left expect the government to provide as much as possible. Then there’s the extremes - the extreme right want to refuse people things they are (for whatever reason) unable to take responsibility for, the extreme left wants to force people to take things from the government whether they want it or not, and regardless of whether it would help. In this specific case, the only people being “unfairly” removed from the electoral rolls have made it clear they want nothing to do with voting by, well, repeatedly not voting, as well as ignoring communications about it and failing to take any of the many steps they could have taken to restore their registration. These are not helpless victims who’ve had their rights cruelly stripped, they are mature, competent actors who’ve chosen not to involve themselves in democracy. And that’s why this is not a big deal. ---

Even if that is so, what remit have you to refuse to let them change their minds? They didn’t want to vote before, now they do, and you can’t have that? What? National security? Maybe these feckless layabouts had a Come to Obama moment, and are suddenly blazing with civic virtue and commitment. Now, they want nothing less than their rights, endowed by their Creator, etc. The right to vote is a core value, our foundation and our aspiration for justice. Why, sometimes in a moment of rash enthusiasm, I think it may even be more important than private property! Abridging voting rights ought to be done like porcupines make love, with the utmost caution. And with all this pondering and chin-stroking, nobody noticed the demographics? Does anyone here believe that Mr Kemp had no idea about the racial makeup of the affected group? I have heard that innocence is the ignorance of evil, but does it work when the ignorance is willful, even stubborn? Of course he knew! And what a splendid opportunity was lost, to be a hero, to set aside partisan self-interest for the sake of _justice_! Justice done, and justice seen to be done! A Profile in Cracker Courage!
