I thought GP was arguing they were trying to find non-citizens on the voter rolls to intimidate them (which may be a misreading).

  They'll claim they're doing that but intimidate citizens instead.

  No. There are not non-citizens on voter rolls. They want the rolls to get data on voters. When you ask yourself why the ultra-politicized DOJ (which isn't even the DHS...) from an administration that has explicitly called liberals the enemy is asking for voter rolls, it becomes pretty understandable why people might come to the conclusion that it is to suppress the people that have already explicitly been identified as targets.

    > There are not non-citizens on voter rolls. That is incorrect, there are actually non-citizens on voter rolls, especially in the states with automatic voter registration.

Of course, actually voting would be a crime: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/611 https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/611 but it doesn't stop everybody: https://www.daytondailynews.com/news/state-more-than-100-non-citizens-have-voted-ohio/kLDaZOPtJBvlx1JNEWt1DJ/ https://www.daytondailynews.com/news/state-more-than-100-non...

      Thank you. I stand corrected.
