They sued almost immediately.
I mean, they settled almost immediately.
They've since removed almost a million names from the roles in New York city.
We see it in California.
I mean, in Colorado, in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Kentucky, they removed three quarters of a million names, thanks to a settlement and consent decree.
And it's just, in my view, the tip of the iceberg.
In Illinois, they're not removing names.
California, the rest of the state is a mess.
In Oregon,
they virtually removed no names from their rolls as the law requires.
And the law requires not much, which is, you know, if you don't vote in a federal election, they're supposed to send you a card.
And if you don't respond to the card or vote within two federal election cycles, meaning four or five years, they're supposed to remove your names.
They can't be bothered to do that.
And dirty election rolls are kind of a way and an inducement
and an opportunity for fraudsters because it's a lot of dirty names under who they could possibly vote.
And that's why federal law requires the states to clean them up.
And the Justice Department hasn't been doing any of this.
For years, Judicial Watch was the first one to do this comprehensively.
Well, there are no reasonable arguments.
They fight whether we have the right to sue, and three courts have authorized our cases to go forward just in the last few months in Illinois, California, and Oregon.
