Millions Removed From the Voter Rolls. Are You Still Registered? | Angela Rye SoloPod

Millions of voter registrations have been removed from the rolls in Florida and South Carolina since 2022. In Florida, more than 2.3 million registrations were removed between 2022 and July 2026. In South Carolina, nearly 1.2 million registrations were removed between 2022 and 2025. We’ll be joined by Chanae Jackson, Organizing Director for Florida For All, to discuss voter-roll removals in Florida and South Carolina, and what voters should know about maintaining their registration. Christina Cue from the ACLU also joins us to discuss the voter-roll purges in South Carolina. And we’ll be joined by Congressman Bennie Thompson, Chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus Institute, to discuss the CBC Institute’s Go Vote Initiative and its efforts to increase voter engagement and participation.
