Don’t Get Purged is a civic engagement resource aimed at helping voters verify that their registration is still active on their state’s official voter rolls. The site encourages people to “stay on the voter rolls” and offers tools and links to check registration status, find registration deadlines, and re-register if needed — especially in the face of ongoing voter list “purging” and wrongful removal.
The project is tied to Mighty Vote, a voter empowerment initiative focused on fighting wrongful purging by providing accurate election information and voter rights education.

-
Provide a simple voter roll check tool to confirm registration status.

Why This Matters
In many U.S. states, voters can be removed from registration rolls (“purged”) due to inactivity, data errors, or administrative processes — sometimes disproportionately affecting marginalized communities. Don’t Get Purged helps people identify and correct registration issues before election deadlines, which is a direct defense of democratic participation rights.
