Alabama’s program that flagged thousands of registered voters and accused them of illegally registering must stop until after the presidential election, a federal judge ruled this evening.

Judge Anna M. Manasco said that Alabama must stop moving those voters from active to “inactive” status, as the election is just three weeks away.

“As part of this program, they were all reported to Alabama’s chief law enforcement authority for criminal investigation,” said Judge Manasco, adding “as far as I know nothing has been done to undo that.”

Manasco, who was appointed to the federal bench by former President Donald Trump in 2020, said she could not discount the negative impact that such a notice from the state would have on a potential voter.

[Think. Again.]

1. Federal Law forbids any action to be taken on voter rolls beginning 90 days before any election.

2. Isn't removing eligible voters off the voting rolls ILLEGAL?

It is unfathomable to think that even if one can prove who they are and where they live, be denied the right to vote ANYWHERE in this country!

What is being done in states like Alabama, etc., iis making sure Democratic leaning voters do not vote. I have client/friends in Mobile who had to PROVE their eligibility and they are WHITE! Of course, they happen to be Democrats.
