LA County Removes 1.2 million Ineligible Voters in Judicial Watch Lawsuit Settlement

Good news for voters and elections in California. Los Angeles County removed 1,207,613 ineligible voters from its rolls since last year under the terms of a settlement agreement in a federal lawsuit we filed in 2017 (Judicial Watch, Inc., et al. v. Dean C. Logan, et al. (No. 2:17-cv-08948)).

We sued on behalf of four lawfully registered voters in Los Angeles County and the Election Integrity Project California, Inc., a public interest group involved in monitoring California’s voter rolls.

Under the terms of the settlement agreement, Los Angeles County sent almost 1.6 million address confirmation notices in 2019 to voters listed as “inactive” on its voter rolls. Under the federal National Voter Registration Act (NVRA), voters who do not respond to the notices and who do not vote in the following two federal elections must be removed from the voter rolls. The settlement also required an update to the state’s online NVRA manual to make it clear that ineligible names must be removed and to notify each California county that they are obliged to do this.

In the most recent of a series of progress reports to us, Los Angeles County confirmed that 1,207,613 ineligible and inactive voters were recently removed from the rolls. Los Angeles County confirmed last year that more than 634,000 of its inactive voters hadn’t voted in at least 10 years.

We previously detailed that Los Angeles County had allowed more than 20% of its registered voters to become inactive without removing them from the voter list.

This long overdue voter roll clean-up is a historic victory and means California elections are less at risk for fraud. Building on this success, we will continue our lawsuits and activism to clean up voter rolls…

PC Clean at a Nice Price

August 9, 2021/in Computer Security

Why does everything slow down as it gets older?

Me, for example. Every day, basic tasks become more arduous. Some mornings, even the distance between the bed and the floor seems insurmountable… and that’s gravity assisted – well, apart from the actual standing-up bit obviously.

There was a time when I could remember every item on a list without having to actually look at the list. Now I’m lucky if I can remember there’s a list at all.

As for sleep; why can’t I ever seem to get enough? When did it become the most important thing in my life? Did I always need this much sleep to function?

The more I think about it, the more I’m like a PC. As time goes on, memory fails, I slow down, I can’t think straight and a take forever to get started. In fact, if I was a computer, you’d definitely be looking to upgrade me by now. I don’t even think you’d get much for a trade anymore.

Sadly, unlike a PC, I can’t just download an app to get me going again…

Norton Utilities Ultimate is a suite of computer tuning tools packaged together by NortonLifeLock – the renowned cyber-security specialists. Utilities Ultimate is not really about security though – instead, it lets you access a wide selection of settings, tweaks and protocols that can keep your PC running more smoothly, more efficiently and above all else, faster.

I’ve used products like this in the past because, when you like to fiddle around your computer’s setup the way I do, it’s not unusual to end up making things worse rather than better. Adjusting the wrong start-up behaviour or installing a program that uses up more of your PC’s resources than it should is easy to do, yet can be a real challenge to identify – let alone rectify.

That’s why I’ve really appreciated the stripped-back, easy-on-the-eye Norton Utilities Ultimate interface. When you open the app, a simple dashboard appears, offering you the option to analyse your PC to see if there are any issues that need dealing with. This only takes a few seconds, after which you’re presented with a list of things that can be fixed up. These vary from broken registry entries, to unnecessary startup items, to misconfigured internet settings.

It’s a pretty…
