An Analysis of Registration Recovery Project Voters

by Christopher Cooper

The North Carolina State Board of Elections recently unveiled the Registration Recovery Project (RRP), which includes more than 100,000 North Carolina registered voters. I thought I'd take a look at the characteristics of these voters to learn more who is on the RRP list. 

Because the analysis includes a lot of tables that can look wonky when put into blogger, I put them in a pdf

  • 2nd update (includes all of the previous + the second day of people who cured their registration (July 19 afternoon).
  • 1st update (includes first day of people who cured their registration + voter history analysis (July 18 evening)
  • Initial Analysis: accessible here (July 18)
I will continue to update daily [note: there are no updates on Sunday & Monday bc no changes are processed on the weekends]
