Providing Notice

In the voter purge context, election officials should implement a standard due processe procedure that provides notice to voters and an opportunity for them to be heard prior to their removal. Jurisdictions could also disclose other methods they considered in determining the timing of conducting a voter purge and how to notify affected persons, as well as their coordination with other state agencies such as the Department of Motor Vehicles and Department of Vital Statistics.72 Alternatives in the voter purge context would include proposals to gather the information and ensure that persons received the requisite notice prior to removal.

The Department of Justice could also serve as a barrier to inaccurate purges. Critics of voter purges suggest that instead of carrying out the primary function of the NVRA—increasing voter registration and participation—the Department of Justice’s Voting Section is concentrating its NVRA enforcement priority on pressuring jurisdictions to trim the voter rolls.
