some dem states participate in ERIC which systematically does purge ostensibly-illegitimate voting records. the most republican states which became members, probably because they love purge, have since withdrawn because they didnt like the other ERIC function of notifying legitimate voters of their rights, which increased turnout.
There’s nothing inherently wrong with regular voter purges, removing deceased voters for example, and even the most well intentioned system will have the occasional error. But there are attorneys general, I’ve only seen reports with Republican ones, who use voter purges explicitly to influence the results.
Voter list maintenance is a standard, legally required part of the election process, and many if not most of these registrations are for people who have moved away, died or long since stopped voting.
I’m not trying to be a jerk to you. It’s just a pet peeve of mine when people say or imply that Democrats and Republicans are the same. If it means anything I appreciate your response.
Do you have a source for Democrats purging voters?

yes. crosscheck was extremely popular For Some Reason
They do it all the time.
That’s not remotely what’s being discussed here and you know it.
I have no idea what the person I responded to knows or doesn’t know beyond what they post.
You know what a source is though, right? The thing they asked for?
They’ve already clarified their statement. Your whiteknighting is too late and unnecessary.
Congratulations. To be this willfully ignorant must take a lot of effort to maintain. At least you’re good at something.
I know you think you’re being clever, but you just come off as such a tool.
I never said anything about what OP knows or doesn’t.
Just that you know regular maintenance of voter rolls isn’t the topic at hand
Do you have a source for Democrats purging legitimate voters in any systematic or politically nefarious way?
I do not.

That’s fair. Some people seem to think all voter “purges” are nefarious. Appreciate the clarification.
