EP: 185 Bill 316 May Cause 22,000 Voters To Be Removed From The Gwinnett Voters Roll
www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com Thousands of people on Gwinnett County\u2019s voter rolls who haven\u2019t voted in awhile could be kicked off if they don\u2019t quickly respond to notices the county\u2019s elections office is be preparing to send out.
Gwinnett Elections Supervisor Kristi Royston said about 22,000 voters in the county are set to receive NGE notices \u2014 NGE essentially stands for \u201cno activity through two general elections.\u201d
These voters are therefore deemed \u201cinactive\u201d by state elections officials, and are scheduled to be removed from voter rolls if they don\u2019t quickly update their registration information. Officially, the registrations are \u201ccanceled\u201d if the voter does not respond.
This is part of a change in how Georgia removes \u201cinactive\u201d voters from the voter rolls, since state law now requires notices be sent out to voters to let them know they are scheduled for removal.
\u201cThis is a change to this process that came out of House Bill 316,\u201d Royston said. \u201cThis cancellation has taken place before, but in the past, there was not a notification prior to removal.
