Your precinct is, relatively speaking, a small part of your
city or town. The following is from
Judicial Watch’s Stop Voter Fraud
Handbook; it contains some
suggestions of how to help clean up voter registration rolls in your precinct:
Perform Voter Registration Research
Without question, the key to
ensuring voter integrity during an election is being able to verify that the
names and addresses on the voter registration list are legitimate and up-to-
date. In each state, voter registration lists can be obtained ahead of the
election. Checking these lists against other available data is a laborious,
time-consuming — but essential — job for which your help would definitely be
welcomed.
While voter registration lists can
be purchased from an online service and directly from some of the states
(either of which can be expensive), you should have no difficulty getting a
copy of the list for your precinct from the state headquarters of your
candidate or your party. You can also file an “Open Records” request with your
state.
The process of checking voter
registration lists requires a degree of patience and creativity. For example,
volunteers working on lists will attempt to check the voter entries against
other available resources, such as property tax information and dates of birth.
The website, www.tributes.com, and local papers can even be checked for
obituaries.
Duplicate registrations, which do
occur, will be more easily discovered. As indicated, the process is
time-consuming and tedious, but it is an extremely important function, as it is
the bedrock of ensuring voter integrity on Election Day.

notice from your Board of Elections.
