Envolve: When it comes to elections, the old saying “one person, one vote” only works when that “one person” is still alive, living at their registered address, and voting only in that state.
Last week, that old saying got a big boost from a federal court in Maine. U.S. District Judge George Z. Singal ruled in favor of the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) in a result that could impact access to state voter rolls across the country. He found that Maine had violated the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 when it imposed excessive restrictions and fines on using its Voter File for research.
“This is monumental victory [sic] for election integrity,” said PILF President J. Christian Adams according to a March 29 PILF press release. “The use restrictions would have made it extremely difficult to hold Maine and other election officials accountable. This ruling will make other states think twice before passing similar laws.”
What was the issue? PILF requested to see the voter rolls in various states to cross-check the names of active voters with deceased and relocated voters. Maine refused to release the names, citing state law that limited voter data access to “municipal and state election officials for the purposes of election and voter registration information” with a few exceptions. more here
Why don’t voter registrations expire at the end of each year! Like your DMV plates.
“350,000 deceased registrants”

I have been able to get voter rolls as Chair of our town R Committee.
You had to have a reason to get it and weren’t supposed to share it.
This will make things much easier for candidates now.
