Add this to our discussion of managing elections in 2306:
State election officials repeatedly and mistakenly matched active
longtime Texas voters to deceased strangers across the country - some of
whom perished more than a decade ago - in an error-ridden effort to
purge dead voters just weeks before the presidential election, according
to a Houston Chronicle review of records.
Voters in legislative districts across Texas with heavy
concentrations of Hispanics or African-Americans were more often
targeted in that flawed purge effort, according the Chronicle's analysis
of more than 68,000 voters identified as possibly dead.
