Federal judge blocks Alabama's voter purge program ahead of election
A federal judge on Wednesday temporarily blocked Alabama’s voter removal program that flagged thousands of registered voters and accused them of illegally registering in the state.
The Justice Department sued the state of Alabama challenging the program aimed at removing voters from its election rolls, arguing it was too close to the Nov. 5 election.
The office of Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen, a Republican, had referred to the program as “strategic efforts” to “remove noncitizens registered to vote” from the state’s voter rolls.
But the federal law known as the National Voter Registration Act bans states from systematically removing people from their lists of registered voters within 90 days of a federal election, also known as the “quiet period” before Election Day.
Allen announced a process for purging 3,251 registered Alabama voters in August, 84 days before Election Day.
