Same Day Registration: More Prone To Fraud, Mistakes?

Latest Polls (view all)

Under the cover of Covid, and now in the shadow of the infamous Election Irregularities of that fated 2020 presidential election, with current emerging alleged election fraud in Nevada and Pennsylvania inconveniently slipping into the public discourse, there is proved a colluded ongoing Election Interference in the nomination of the Republican candidate, the likes of which has never occurred in our Constitutional Republic's history, albeit, the question remains: Do you support the plain-sight Election Interference of the Democratic Socialist party, employing its minions in their Propagandistic Media, and their Two Tiered Justice System?

98.85% No, I do not support Election Interference; I am a patriot unto our Constitution.

1.15% Yes, I do support Election Interference; the alternative, Donald Trump, to this mentally diminished president is far worse.

0% "What, me worry" if elections are rigged?

Same Day Registration: More Prone To Fraud, Mistakes?

Publisher's note: This post, by Brian Balfour, was originally published in the elections section of Civitas's online edition.

The N&O today tackled the issue of same-day registration (SDR), citing research conducted by the Civitas Institute.

The conservative think tank Civitas did its own study of same-day registration during the 2008 election. The group mailed surveys to voters who registered in the traditional method and also through same-day registration. The Raleigh group said it found twice as many undeliverable registrations that were done during early voting.
Francis De Luca of Civitas disagrees with Hall's explanation of why there are higher rates of unverified registrants. He said the possibility that county elections offices would be late in verifying voters means the process is flawed.
"Why are (the board of elections) six weeks late?" De Luca said in an email. "By being six weeks late they broke the law and the elections board's own rules. This happens every single election! Nothing is ever done to fix it."

The research being referenced was actually conducted during the 2012 primary season. You can read all about it here, but below is a short summary:

We chose five counties - Buncombe, Durham, New Hanover, Pasquotank and Wake - to include in our own mailing to check on voters' status. Our plan was to see how many voters' letters would be returned as undeliverable....Then a total of 5,019 surveys were mailed to SDR voters. The surveys were mailed on three different dates - two dates before Election Day and the last on May 12, four days after the Primary Election. These mailings produced 365 undeliverable pieces of mail - a rate of 7.3 percent (more than twice the rate of those who registered during the normal registration process).
We believe that these results are valid and reasonable and suggest that statewide thousands of people were improperly registered in 2008 and in every subsequent election since 2008 - enough to swing elections.
