Alaska Moves 3,500 Voters to Inactive List | Anchorage News

Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description

Alaska’s Division of Elections quietly moved over 3,500 voters to an “inactive” list, suspecting they may not be U.S. citizens — a move based on potentially outdated DMV data. Officials say it’s routine verification, and voters can confirm their status by responding or contacting the office. But many were shocked to find themselves removed online, sparking alarm and accusations of voter suppression, especially as the state’s lieutenant governor previously shared voter data with the DOJ. While officials insist this maintains accurate rolls, critics fear old data could disenfranchise naturalized citizens — and question whether this is just a standard check or a politically charged move.
