I have two HUGE updates to share from Judicial Watch’s fight for election integrity:

1. Oregon officials announced they will begin the process of removing up to 800,000 inactive names off the state’s voter rolls. 

The announcement came AFTER Judicial Watch sued Oregon in federal court under the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA).

Our lawsuit exposed that 35 of Oregon’s 36 counties had overall registration rates exceeding 100% and that 29 of their 36 counties hadn’t removed any inactive voters in over a decade.

This means that Judicial Watch lawsuits brought under NVRA have now resulted in 5.8 million dirty voter names being removed around the country – That’s 5.8 million fewer opportunities for fraud

2. BREAKING: The Supreme Court of the United States has announced that arguments for Judicial Watch’s landmark Election Day lawsuit against Mississippi will be heard March 23.

This news broke just as I was writing this update. The case will mark Judicial Watch’s second Supreme Court appearance in recent months and will seek to uphold a ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit which struck down a Mississippi law unconstitutionally allowing election officials to count mail-in ballots received up to five days after Election Day.

The Supreme Court will soon have an opportunity to reaffirm that “Election Day” means what it says under federal law. Counting ballots received after Election Day not only violates federal law but encourages voter fraud and undermines voter confidence.

Our hope is that the Supreme Court will uphold the historic decision by the Fifth Circuit which sensibly concluded that counting ballots received after Election Day is unlawful.

Removing nearly 6 million invalid names from voter rolls and bringing two landmark election integrity cases to The Supreme Court are major milestones for Judicial Watch which are a testament to our team’s heavy lifting and to our online community of supporters who spread the word about our important work – Thank you!

While I’m proud of our achievements in the fight for clean elections, they carry great costs and I must be honest about how much work is still ahead. Just on the front for cleaning up voter rolls, our team estimates that there are still 24 million dirty voter names on rolls around the country.

If you’re able to, please mark our major milestones for election integrity by making your first-time contribution to Judicial Watch. Your financial support will ensure we can quickly respond to election integrity challenges as they emerge in this critical year.

With your support and financial backing we never stop fighting for honest elections you can trust.

Thank you again for helping us get this far and all that you do to support election integrity.

Sincerely, 

Tom Fitton 

President, Judicial Watch 

P.S. Just in the last couple of weeks, Oregon agreed to remove 800,000 dirty names from their voter rolls AFTER being sued by Judicial Watch AND The Supreme Court announced that our historic case to end the practice of counting ballots received after Election Day will be heard on March 23. Judicial Watch truly does the HEAVY LIFTING when it comes to fighting for clean elections and it’s a lift we can only make with your support. Please make your first-time gift now to help us keep the momentum going for election integrity and to support the expected and unexpected fights ahead.
