The Republican National Committee is urging the Supreme Court to intervene in an Arizona election dispute this week and block up to 40,000 of the state’s registered voters from casting ballots in the presidential race.
Republican state lawmakers say these voters did not provide proof of their citizenship when they were registered and now they should be barred from voting in person or by mail.
The base concept of saying where you live in a highly mobile society makes sense for knowing how many ballots and staff to prepare, especially when there are so many local elected positions. It even helped with speeding up voting when all you needed to do was sign off when voting instead of all this ID bullshit.
Republicans weaponized a functioning system.
You don’t have a central electronic registry of where everyone lives?
Edit: on state level I mean
Nope. Voter registration is the closest we get to an up to date system that varifies residency and only for the purposes of voting.
