CyberScoop on efforts to make it easier to remove voters from the rolls, including changes to the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) proposed by Georgia’s Secretary of State:

In a congressional hearing on state voter registration practices Tuesday, Republicans on the House Administration Committee were united around common sentiments: It is too easy for citizens to register to vote and too easy for them to stay on voter rolls, states aren’t doing enough to remove ineligible voters, and it’s all led to the country’s elections being vulnerable to mass voter fraud and noncitizen voting.

There was little evidence presented to back up most of those claims….

In a letter sent to House Administration Committee Chair Bryan Steil, R-Wis., Georgia Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger urged the committee to use his state’s policies as a “blueprint” for national election laws, including Voter ID, banning ballot harvesting of mail-in and absentee votes, and robust use of tools like the Federal SAVE database to identify and purge voters suspected of being noncitizens.

One “federal barrier” cited by Raffensperger was a section of the National Voter Registration Act that prohibits states from conducting voter roll purges less than 90 days before an election. This “quiet period” was explicitly designed to prevent states from disenfranchising large numbers of voters right before an election — when relief from the courts could come too late.

But Raffensperger pressed Congress to lift those restrictions, saying the 90-day period “restricts us from conducting systematic list maintenance in federal election years precisely when clean voter rolls are most scrutinized.”
