The Republican nominee for Colorado Secretary of State, James Wiley, says one of his “first priorities” would be to delete Colorado’s voter rolls completely.
It’s really important that we get back to voter rolls that only contain registered voters and eligible citizens.
DeGraaf also wanted to require every Colorado voter to re-register, though his legislation would have permitted online confirmation of name, address, and eligibility.
“When one assesses the challenge of fixing voter rolls with a 25% anomaly rate, the question is raised; would it be easier to start over?
Wiley’s claim of a “25% anomaly rate” is a reference to his previous on-air statement that he conducted an “audit” of the Colorado voter rolls using third-party software called ELLY.
