Lawsuit: Fulton County Fails To Maintain Accurate Voter Rolls, Violating State And Federal Law
|
[Federalist] Fulton County, Georgia, is allegedly not maintaining its voter rolls, according to a recently filed in federal court.
The suit, brought by Fulton County residents Jason Frazier and Earl Ferguson against Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger and members of the Fulton County Department of Registrations and Elections (FCDRE), alleges that "Fulton County does not maintain, nor does it even attempt to maintain, accurate voter rolls."
The suit cites, in part, testimony from Atlanta city attorney Patrise Perkins-Hooker who said last November that "Fulton County never does an independent search for anybody; dead people, felons, people who live out of state."
Perkins-Hooker said the Secretary of State’s office sends Fulton County a list of potentially ineligible voters who are then notified by the county about such allegations.
"We don’t have the right, to remove anybody’s privilege to vote without a hearing," Perkins-Hooker said. "We are not, on our own, initiating any investigation of our voting rolls to remove anybody."
But the suit argues that Fulton County is obligated to maintain clean and accurate voting rolls, citing state law which says "the board of registrars of each county or municipality shall have the right and shall be charged with the duty of examining from time to time the qualifications of each elector ... ." The National Voter Registration Act (NVRA), also requires states to "conduct a general program that makes a reasonable effort to remove the names of ineligible voters from the official lists of eligible voters."
