“PSA for NC registered voters: This is shared from a Wake County voter. I knew that was starting to happen in other states, but this is the first time I’ve realized it was happening here in NC.
In some counties, voter rolls are being purged, even if you have recently voted and haven’t moved or done anything differently. In many places the way you don’t get removed from registered voter rolls is they send you a postcard or a letter asking you to confirm your personal information and if you don’t get the notice or don’t realize what it is, you could be denied your right to vote the next time you try. (See attached photo, of one such notices, this one sent to the wife of the current Governor of NC.) If you value your voting rights, watch your mail.”
“NC folks – this comes straight from our First Lady, Kristin Cooper:
North Carolina peeps: Keep your eye out for this bit of mail.
It is NOT a scam.
It tells me that despite voting in every election since I was 18, including the one 20 months ago, I will be dropped from the voter rolls if I don’t return this postcard. Lots of people were surprised to find out they were mysteriously unregistered in the last election.
If, like me, you treat snail mail like poison ivy, and are distrustful of sending your personal information to people you don’t know……TOUGH!
I’m sending mine in tomorrow. It is postage paid, at least.”
This doesnt just happen in NC. Watch your mail everywhere!
