Last week, we celebrated the efforts of three states—Alabama, Ohio, and Virginia—to actively purge non-citizens from their voter rolls. However, the fight to maintain election integrity is far from over, and the situation is urgent.
A recent conversation between a top election integrity expert in Virginia and state officials revealed gaps in the process to ensure that the 6,000+ non-citizens identified in Virginia are indeed removed from the rolls. This lack of clarity and action underscores local oversight's crucial and immediate role in safeguarding our elections. The gravity of this situation cannot be overstated.
Retired Colonel John Mills, President of the National Election Integrity Association and a leader of a local Election Integrity Working Group in Virginia, has shown us the impact of grassroots action. By holding local officials accountable, Mills has successfully removed two Recorders who failed in their duties and is now working to confirm that the current Recorder's office is following through on purging non-citizens. His efforts underscore the power of direct engagement at the local level to ensure that election laws are enforced and voter rolls are clean, empowering citizens like you to make a difference.
When Mills realized that top state officials didn't have clear answers on whether voter rolls were being properly cleaned up at the local level, he immediately contacted the Recorder. Driven by a commitment to ensure electoral integrity, he decided to "trust but verify" by directly contacting the new Recorder to investigate the situation. His proactive approach sets an example of holding local officials accountable and ensuring that the voter rolls are maintained accurately and transparently.
It's a stark reminder that even when state leaders identify issues, the execution at the local level is what ultimately determines the integrity of our elections.
If you're not already engaged with a local group overseeing the maintenance of your voter rolls, we need you. Every citizen has the right to ask their local Recorder for information on how voter roll maintenance is conducted, including non-citizen removal. We cannot afford to assume “somebody” is making an effort, and we should never worry about how the Recorder will react to inquiry because they work for you.
Every citizen has the right to ask the Recorder for information, and by law, the Recorder is required to supply you with answers without a formal FOIA inquiry. An email, phone call, or in-person visit can get the ball rolling.
“People don’t do what you expect, but what you inspect.”
Here’s a list of recommended questions. Be sure to ask when they identified and purged registrants and how many:
Do you have a process to identify and remove non-citizens from the voter roll? Can you provide the guidelines that govern your office?
When did you last verify the voter roll of suspected non-citizens with the DHS? Are you aware that you only need to submit a list of names and dates of birth to confirm status promptly in compliance with the SAVE Act?
How many non-citizens have been identified and removed from the voter roll this year and this month?
Have you checked to see if any non-citizens have voted in past elections, and how many? What actions were taken?
Do you compare the voter roll to death records?
Do you compare the voter roll to a Jury Nullification report to identify non-citizens and ineligible voters?
Do you compare the voter roll against the US Postal database to identify any voters who have moved out of county or state?
Unless we act locally and hold our officials accountable, millions of illegal votes could still be cast in upcoming elections.
Note: More Americans should seek the critical job of Recorder, which provides DOUBLE the average nationwide income!
