Voter Purge, Not Before November

September 25th, 2012 by flanews

This week supervisors of elections will once again receive names of people who may be registered to vote illegally.

The names are part of the state’s renewed efforts to remove non-citizens from the voting rolls. Supporters of the voter purge efforts had hoped to see the illegally registered voters removed before the General Election but it looks unlikely that won’t happen. Secretary of State Ken Detzner says the efforts are about more than just this election.

“This process does not have a start, a beginning or an end. It’s very similar to the felon process or removing people who are mentally incompetent. It’s ongoing. It occurs during an election process,” said Detzner.

The state’s efforts to remove illegally registered voters were put on hold earlier this year because it couldn’t gain access to a federal immigration database. Now the state has access and already has confirmed more than 200 illegally registered voters.
