Strongly Support this Common-sense Petition to enable Registrars to do their job
 

I strongly support this petition to allow jury commissioners to provide information from undeliverable juror mailings or juror questionnaires, to clerks or other officials, for the latter to provide to general registrars for list maintenance. The State Board of Elections needs to approve this petition and incorporate it into policy at the meeting following the petition's closing deadline. This is not a partisan issue - everyone benefits from better voter list maintenance and registrars have requested this information to improve their ability to clean the voter rolls. Now that Virginia is taking responsibility for its own voter list maintenance, after leaving the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC), the SBE and ELECT should take the opportunity this petition offers, to improve voter list maintenance. This is a win-win non-partisan issue that improves transparency, cuts through red tape to improve data-sharing, and empowers registrars to do their jobs.
