LOD: Measuring Voter Fraud

What’s next for selectively reducing turnout in North Carolina? Let’s hope it’s not the voter roll purges that Southern states like Florida and Virginia are now undertaking. With two weeks before a hot gubernatorial election, Virginia is in the midst of a hot debate over whether it’s okay to purge a list of 38,000 voters, even though county election administrators report that 10 to 20% of the names are legitimate voters. The list comes from matching names with voter rolls in other states and felony conviction records – and some argue it’s should be accepted wholesale because it’s at least 80% right! Close enough for you? So much for respecting individual rights and protecting against mass fraud.
