Sure. But they're not offering to turn over everything but the SSN. Are they?

Why don't the Feds buy the data or download it or collect it like any other citizen can? I don't see the big deal.


Why buy something we could have just for the asking? I'm sure the Russians would willingly just email that info over to POTUS. You know, collusion and shite.

There are other parts of the request that are considered private information.

In any case, compiling the methods for maintaining the data and reviewing actual practices would be better than collecting voter rolls and start fishing through a billion records. What they are asking for looks like they are fishing for illegal aliens in Dem districts regardless of whether they actually voted.

How would they find them if they're not registered?

This is something POTUS should milk until just before the next presidential election.

You might want to think that through.

Every now and then, liberals accidentally admit who they really are.

California allows access to their voter rolls for people merely doing voter trend research. This isn't some unheard of massive infringement on privacy.
Yes, basic information (DOB, mailing address, & party affiliation) is available to the public. And a request can be made for specific purposes (journalism, research).
Tutorial: Voter Registration Records

Because of privacy concerns, personal information on a voter at a voter registrar’s office, such as a home address or phone number, is often not available to the general public. Only a voter’s date of birth, mailing address and political party affiliation might be available.

However, much of the personal information, such as a home address and phone number, is not open to the general public because of privacy cconcerns. In California, a reporter can get access to the restricted information if you can demonstrate you need it for “journalistic purposes.”
The administration also wants 10 years of voting records as well. In my opinion, as long as personal data can be transmitted securely, the voting records would be the most concerning information to give over to federal politicians. It's valuable data, that a partisan group would have. I know I wouldn't want the Obama administration to trust them to use them for solely government purposes.

Except for the fact that there is this law..... and its prerty clear.

Now I get your point, but you will not find many Americans who think we shoild allow non US citizens to vote.

The voter rolls need to be purges of dead people that are still voting and illegal people voting.

Are you making this up, or is there some legal basis?

Looking quickly on my phone, I haven't found any legal basis for your post, but if it exists I think that would be useful for this discussion. I did find this to be an intersting guide.

I agree. States are required to make reasonable efforts to keep their registration database accurate. They also provide REPORTS to the federal government, and the DOJ can access the application and declination information.

The Admin's request obviously includes some of that information, but I think some of the information goes a little further than the legal authority.

Frankly, I would actually like to see this go through the courts up to SCOTUS.

You didn't bother to look up anything other than what was pointed out to you yesterday about declinations?

Wow.

I just provided a 344 page document that provides information regarding federal election laws, which I found 5 minutes ago.

So yes, I have bothered to look up more information.

He was citing the Constitution yesterday and the federal role in elections. So I asked him about the fed's role in immigration, and didn't get an answer. So then someone cited one section of federal code. And now he has grabbed on to the one small portion of federal code. So I hinted to him there might be other federal code sections that applied, and maybe even court tested cases about the fed's role, and right to this information. Just to see if he might take a moment to do a Google search.

And now here we are today, and he is still going like the Energizer Bunny wanting a SCOTUS ruling.

I'm going to let him keep going, and when he forgets, maybe in a month, I'll post some links in a thread where he is acting like an expert again.

When applying for regular ID cards at the DMV a simple machine misreading a checkbox to register could accidentally add someone to the list. Depending on whether or not the local districts purge the old data, some of those records could be there even if they were corrected.

There are other ways to merge name and address records by running functions to handle simple mispellings and the like. However I am not certain what that would tell you. Perhaps you can compare it to actual voter counts and look for people voting in two different states or districts using their real names. But that would be exhausting based on name matching and very little else.

Like I said, reviewing processes for maintaining voter registration lists (purging dead people, handling people who move) would get you much better results.
