The Guardian reports:
Georgia secretary of state and gubernatorial candidate Brian Kemp improperly purged more than 340,000 voters from the state's registration rolls, an investigation charges.
Greg Palast, a journalist and the director of the Palast Investigative Fund, said an analysis he commissioned found 340,134 voters were removed from the rolls on the grounds that they had moved - but they actually still live at the address where they are registered.
"Their registration is cancelled. Not pending, not inactive – cancelled. If they show up to vote on 6 November, they will not be allowed to vote. That's wrong," Palast told reporters on a call on Friday. "We can prove they're still there. They should be allowed to vote."
[...] Palast and the Georgia Coalition for the People's Agenda filed a lawsuit against Kemp on Friday to force him to release additional records related to the state's removal of voters.
Under Georgia procedures, registered voters who have not cast ballots for three years are sent a notice asking them to confirm they still live at their address. If they don't return it, they are marked inactive. If they don't vote for two more general elections after that, they are removed from the rolls.

There is zero evidence H intentionally tried to hide anything. She had a right to delete personal info; it's just that her lawyers did a sloppy job. When investigators recovered a sub-set of the "deleted" emails, there was nothing nefarious in them. She and her lawyers were careless, yes; but a lot of politicians have screwed up emails and tech. Also, the State Dept. is partly at fault for not insuring she went to proper security training. That's the job of the security/IT group, NOT the Sec. of State. H can't micromanage training schedules.

Trump has more than one asshole? Who knew.
If he could fart in different keys would it constitute a musical instrument?
Overreacting is one thing, sticking your head up your ass hoping the problem goes away is another - edIII
