La. Removing Thousands Of Inactive Voters

Secretary of State Tom Schedler says the legally mandated process will take place Sunday. Voters are placed on the inactive list when the secretary of state's office is unable to verify their addresses or their mail is returned as undeliverable.

Schedler says the targeted names have not voted for two years beginning with the 2008 presidential election and ending with last month's congressional general election.

The secretary of state says that after the 2005 hurricanes, voters were given an additional two years on the rolls to give them time to return to Louisiana.
