With Texas’ paper-based system, many voters’ applications get lost in the shuffle. Says a volunteer deputy registrar: “It just doesn't seem to really work the way that it’s supposed to.”
We need a federal law that establishes a civil penalty people can sue their state over if they are incorrectly purged from the voter rolls. I think $10k per person would do it. States can still clean up the rolls, but they can’t “accidentally” remove a bunch of legit voters without being on the hoo for millions in legal liability.

Except, the scum who are doing this will still do it because they won’t pay the cost.
You guys need the federal government to manage its own elections, simple as that.
