#66 How to Sweep Fascists Off the Ballot (Legally and Loudly)

Skill Level: 🐾🐾🐾 (Intermediate)

🐱 WHAT THIS IS:

Welcome to the political litterbox, where voter rolls are being “cleaned” by authoritarians with a power complex and a paper shredder. This guide is about voter roll defense: how to check your registration, help others protect theirs, and how to legally challenge shady purges in your state. Because if they can’t beat you with ideas, they’ll erase your name and pretend you never existed.

⚠️ WHY THIS MATTERS:

In the last 24 hours alone, Georgia, Missouri, and Ohio began quiet voter purges targeting “inactive voters.” Translation? If you didn’t vote in a local race or missed a piece of snail mail, your vote might already be gone. And who gets hit hardest? Black voters, renters, college students, low-income workers, and anyone without a stable address. Sound targeted? Because it is.

Authoritarians are betting you’re too busy to notice until it’s too late. Let’s prove them wrong.

✊ STEP-BY-STEP: DEFENDING THE VOTE

1. 🕵️ Check your registration—often
Go to nass.org/Can-I-Vote. Check today, and mark your calendar to check again monthly through Election Day. Seriously—purges are rolling.

2. 📬 Sign up for election alerts
Most states let you opt into voter status updates. If your state doesn’t, you’re gonna have to check manually. Yes, it sucks. Yes, do it anyway.

3. 🧠 Learn your state’s purge law
Each state has different voter roll maintenance rules. Use Brennan Center or 50501DC to see what your state is allowed to do—and what they’re not.

4. 👀 Help vulnerable voters
Create a checklist and go down it with your community:

Have you moved?
Changed names?
Missed an election?
Not gotten mail from your election office lately?

Help them check and re-register if needed. Set up a table at mutual aid events, concerts, or outside churches.

5. 🧹 Challenge illegal purges
See a mass purge with no notice? REPORT IT. File with your state election office and the Election Protection Hotline (866-OUR-VOTE). Then alert watchdog orgs like 50501 DC, Let America Vote, or Common Cause.

6. 🎤 Turn it into noise
If your community is being purged—go public. Write op-eds, post on social, and organize protest events outside your state’s elections office. Shame works. So do lawsuits.

🐾 KITTY TIP:

Keep a screenshot of your current voter registration. If you get purged and want to raise hell, you’ll need proof. Bonus: screenshots can’t “get lost in the mail.”

💥 CLOSING CLAW-SWIPE:

You don’t need to storm the castle to stop a coup—you just need to make damn sure your name’s still on the guest list. Authoritarians thrive in silence and apathy. So let’s make some noise, protect the vote, and shred their little purge games like an angry kitten with a stack of hate mail.

Stay sharp. Stay registered. Stay dangerous to fascists.
