I am registered to vote in two places, and still have the old driver's license, though issued a new one.
Should I get to vote twice?
It would be easy.
Or, should states be able to purge this Republican from the rolls in the city I moved from?

I have my dead dads ID.
Should I be able to vote in his place too?
Or, should voter purging be a matter of personal responsibility?

Did you ever stop to think that there is not widespread voter fraud BECAUSE state and local governments have been purging voter rolls for decades?
And how does routine voter roll purging become "my" purges?
Now answer my question.
Should Louisiana be able to purge one of my duplicate registrations, and purge my dead dad's name from the roster of voters.
I mean, it is already a BIG hassle to have to PROVE he is dead, to get him out of the jury summons he has been sent 6 years after his death.

This weekend, Pennsylvania Republican House Leader Mike Turzai (R-PA) finally admitted what so many have speculated: Voter identification efforts are meant to suppress Democratic votes in this year’s election.
“We are focused on making sure that we meet our obligations that we’ve talked about for years,” said Turzai in a speech to committee members Saturday. He mentioned the law among a laundry list of accomplishments made by the GOP-run legislature.
“Pro-Second Amendment? The Castle Doctrine, it’s done. First pro-life legislation – abortion facility regulations – in 22 years, done. Voter ID, which is gonna allow Governor Romney to win the state of Pennsylvania, done.”

The old have Senior Centers and Seniors groups to aid and assist them. They also have volunteer drivers to drive them to the places that supply Government Issued Photo ID.
The poor somehow get themselves down to the welfare offices to apply for state assistance and food stamps, don't they? ACORN or its successor, The Working Families Party can provide volunteers to make sure all the poor also have a Government Issued Photo ID. I know they had enough time to register eight year old females to vote in the 2008 election, or time enough to register 26 Democrats all living together communally, comfortably in a 900 square foot Ohio house that same year. They also had enough time and funds recently to bus in busloads of Wisconsin recall voters to Racine, Wi from cities as far away as Minneapolis and Chicago. You gotta find a better bandage for that heart, its bleedin' all over these pages.

"Illegally" purged, or "accidentally?
What's hilarious here is that Democrats fall all over themselves to excuse anomalies like the dead voting, felons voting, illegals voting, and more people voting in a district than there are registered voters, yet they can't understand an accidental deletion of someone from the voter rolls. As if duplicate names or human error has been completely ruled out.
Instead we get "illegal purging" as if some wrong-doing was proven.
Bullshit.

You are almost undoubtedly no longer registered in the state you moved from. If you've lived where your are now for longer than one election cycle, election officials in your former state would have verified your place of residence, and since you no longer live there, you would have been removed from the rolls.
A lot of this noise from the right (especially the ACORN sham) depend on the audience's ignorance of how Federal election law works (and I have yet to see a con here who does). Counting on the ignorance of the base is standard practice in right wing media.
You just gave an ample demonstration.

We're not "falling over ourselves" at all.
Much of the noise about illegals, criminals and dead people voting is all noise and no facts.
The right constantly points to obscure and isolated incidents, but never produces any evidence of any widespread problem. They just make noise.
On the other hand, Democrats have no trouble DOCUMENTING cases where the GOP, and GOP operatives HAVE deliberatly run programs specifically designed to purge voters which are targeted at likely Democratic voters.
Since 2000, the GOP has run, or tried to run voter caging operations in Florida (twice now), Missouri, New Mexico, Michigan and Ohio.
You may recall the George W Bush's attorney general, Alberto Gonzales was forced to resign because he was clearly openly lying to Congress about his role in a Karl Rove managed campaign to install poltical operatives in US Attorney's offices to do precisely that.
