Robin Carnahan, the Democratic Secretary of State of Missouri, and Trey Grayson, the Republican Secretary of State of Kentucky, have written this Roll Call oped ($). A snippet: “One key area where improvements are necessary, and possible, is the modernization of our voter registration system. We’re pleased to see that the Senate Rules and Administration Committee is holding a hearing Wednesday on our voter registration system, and we encourage the committee, in a bipartisan way, to consider the challenges of our system and ways in which its efficiency, accuracy and cost effectiveness can be improved. The 2008 elections made it clear that our system relies too heavily on outside groups to register voters and places considerable burdens on individuals seeking to register or update their registration. This can lead to concerns about invalid registrations clogging the system or voter rolls plagued by duplicate and inaccurate information.”
