NYC's Board of Elections will admit it purged more than 200,000 voters from city rolls

[Padawanbater2]

New York City's Board of Elections will acknowledge it broke the law and be making serious changes in its practices, according to the proposed settlement of a legal fight over the purge of more than 200,000 voters from city rolls.

After many Brooklyn residents arrived at the polls during last year's presidential primary to learn they were deemed ineligible to vote, the good government group Common Cause New York filed suit. State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman and the Brooklyn U.S. Attorney's office joined the litigation.

But rather than slug it out in Brooklyn federal court, the sides have been working on a settlement for months.

Now, a proposed pact slated for filing Wednesday would mandate reforms in the city election agency.

According to WNYC, which first reported the proposed deal, the terms include the Board of Elections acknowledging it broke state and federal law with the purge, and scrutinizing every voter registration removed since July 2013. Another term is the board devising a plan in 90 days for the maintenance of voter rolls.

In a statement, Schneiderman said the city's Board of Elections "illegally purged over 200,000 New Yorkers from the rolls, violating the law and New Yorkers' trust in the institutions meant to protect their rights."

Schneiderman said the proposed settlement "would overhaul NYCBOE's practices for maintaining voter rolls, ensuring that the issues that led to the purges are addressed, and establishing frequent monitoring and oversight. My office will continue to protect all voters' access to the polls and continue to fight to expand voting rights."

A Board of Elections spokeswoman said she could not comment on the matter until a judge signed off on the settlement.

So far, the kids in Florida have been making far stronger arguments than you have.

Not that it's a high bar to cross or anything.

Don't you have some counterpunch articles to spam repeatedly and then start spam threads for the same spam article link that you had already previously spammed in some other spam thread?

You wouldn't know a good argument if it joined you the disgusting cesspool full of semen you call a hot tub.

Don't you have an original piece of thoughtful commentary?

...nope.

You seem really upset, just coming out of nowhere to single me out for personal attacks today. Did your next victim escape from the dog kennel?

You seem to have mistaken me for someone who has any respect for your line of drivel.

Good, I don't want your respect. I find your vile ideology detestable and your behavior impossible to differentiate from that of the most outspoken Trump supporters. Go on another hiatus.

Pobre cito...

Is that supposed to be Spanish, gringo? How can you Trumptards expect Mexico to pay for a wall when you can't even speak enough Spanish to demand it? You can go back to blaming the DNC for all the troubles of the world now.

In Maricopa County, polling locations were reduced 70 percent — from 200 polling places to only 60 — since 2012. This left one polling place for every 21,000 voters. As a result, the Maricopa County voters who managed to stay waited for up to five hours to cast their ballots. Voters registered as Democrats showed up to the polls to find their status changed to Independent, and other voters who had changed their status by the official deadline from Independent to a listed party were told their status had not changed. Many voters received new voter ID cards in the mail on Election Day, with some of the cards containing information that established them in a new district and thus with a new polling place.

so what did it come down to eventually between clinton and the pedo? 17,000 votes? jus sayin

tbh i think it's known that not only states were infiltrated, but votes changed..they're scared as shit to tell us.

Flinging poo is definitely your specialty.

Do you write your name on the walls with it, too?

You're proving yourself to be a worthless human being with every post like this. You use the tactics of smear and ridicule and thus play right into the hands of your oppressors. The Chump is proud of you today.

Sad.

This is not the product of a foreign power meddling in our electoral system, this is homegrown.

Those who know their agenda isn't supported by the majority will turn to suppressing the votes of the opposition. This is the naked face of authoritarianism.
