What happens when voter purges, restrictions on mail-in voting, disappearing ballot drop boxes, and new proof-of-citizenship requirements collide?
In the latest edition of the Election Crimes Bulletin, investigative journalist Greg Palast joins Flashpoints host Dennis Bernstein to give listeners an exclusive preview of his new “Jim Crow Reloaded” project, which highlights the growing number of obstacles that could prevent millions of Americans from casting their ballots.
Palast highlights several issues, including:
🗳️ Voter-roll purges that can remove eligible voters
📬 Increasing attacks and restrictions on mail-in voting
📦 The closure and reduction of ballot drop boxes in some communities
📮 Pressure on the U.S. Postal Service, including demands to withhold mail-in ballots unless voters appear on DOGE-approved citizenship lists
📄 New citizenship-document requirements that could create additional barriers for voters who lack passports or original birth certificates
👰♀️ New ID requirements that could block millions of married women who changed their name.
Palast argues that these issues can compound one another — making it harder for people to register, receive a ballot, return it, or cast their vote in person.
