Feds: Louisiana Not Providing Voter Registration Forms At Public Assistance Offices | Talking Points Memo

Federal officials are suing the state of Louisiana for failing to provide voter registration forms at public assistance and disability services agencies. The Justice Department said that the state is in violation of section seven of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993.Louisiana officials, the feds asserted, have failed to provide voter registration opportunities as required under NVRA because they haven’t designated all offices in the state that provide public assistance as voter registration agencies (including the Office of Aging and Adult Services); failed to provide sufficient supplies of voter registration applications at the designated agencies; and failed to train and monitor employees to make sure they assist in processing voter registration forms.”
