Question 5 • CA-Ethnic Studies

What is one negative effect of purging voter rolls?

Answer
A
It can mistakenly remove voters who should be enfranchised.
B
It can make voting difficult for workers with inflexible schedules.
C
It can limit access to voting for people who lack political literacy.
D
It can dilute the power of voters who are spread across an area.

Explanation

Purging voter rolls means removing names from voter registration lists, often because records suggest a person is no longer eligible or has moved. If those records are incorrect or outdated, eligible voters may be removed and then have trouble voting. So the negative effect is that it can mistakenly remove voters who should be enfranchised.
