My registration was also made inactive when I failed to update my new address and I had to get myself added back. Should I have cried racism because I didn't follow the rules?

It's amazing how quickly demands for equal treatment have become demands for special treatment

Pretty sure those who have moved and those who have died will not be voting this year. Unfortunatey there are no rules to stop stupid,or racist, or ignorant people from voting so they are good to go as long as they didn't forget to re register.

That's exactly the point. No one has been turned away at the polls. Few if any of the names added back belong to legitimate voters

It's just another opportunity for fraud and since we're not even checking ID's (or citizenship status in several states), that potential is greater than ever

The question is, can Republicans win any elections without cheating? I am seriously doubting it.

I'd ask the same of the DNC and it's local cohorts. Unfortunately, they get a major assist from the media

The Republicans who purged the voting rolls knew what they were doing was a blatant violation of federal law and, IMO, it is the most egregious example of Republicans suppressing minority voting rights in the nation. This was a Jim Crow move in the 21st Century.

To suggest that an Obama-appointed federal judge was incapable of understanding federal law, or was acting in a political fashion, in this case, is the stuff of conspiracy theories are made of.

Postcards were sent to people by a rightwing group. That group then took their list of nonrespondents to the counties & demanded that the names be stricken. Instead of telling them where to go & to mind their own business, the names were stricken.

Trump has been telling people to go intimidate at the polls inspite of the fact that the Republican party has been under court order since the NJ governor election of 1981, for intimidating voters in minority majority polling districts.

The New Jersey Democrats have all ready gone to court this year citing Republican intimidation activities in NJ & elsewhere, including NC.

The court order was due to expire next year. Good luck on that one.

You don't have to go back too far to a time where there was no early voting! I don't remember hearing complaints about supression! People have PLENTY of opportunities to vote should they desire to do so.

Voter fraud, not only almost never occurs, it is inefficient. Except in the smallest town election.

Voter Suppression, absolutely does occur. And is effective.
