Hereabouts, merely disenfranchising the mobile people isn't enough: the right-wing party spends a lot of time and money combing the voter registration roles for 'irregularities' like a voter registration address of Privet Drive and a motor vehicle address of Privet Dr., which is sufficient to get someone removed from the voter rolls as a possible fake person. And you don't find out you've been dropped until you go in to vote, and you can't because you need to have registered two months earlier. A lot of my friends are registered Republican because they got tired of being dropped off the voter registration lists every single year, and once they switched to Republican, even though they had exactly the same lifestyle and errors, suddenly they were not only always on the rolls, but people called them to tell them if there were any registration problems and offered to help them fix the problems.
