The Democratic National Committee is threatening to sue the North Carolina board of elections if they go forward with plans to purge almost 100,000 voters from the rolls.

The state elections board – with a new Republican majority – voted at its 24 June meeting to require registered voters to cast provisional ballots if they have not provided their driver’s license number, last four digits of their social security number or an identification number supplied by the state.

The board’s move comes after the Department of Justice filed a lawsuit requiring voter information under the Help America Vote Act that it alleged had been missing in the state. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ordered the board to seek the information from voters before allowing them to vote in future elections.
