5 republican-appointed SCOTUS have just ruled that states can nullify your voter registration if you haven't voted in recent years. Voting is now a use-it-or-lose-it special privelege, not a right. The 4 democrat-appointed justices ruled against this.

Any idea what their reasoning was?


I could see if you disappeared off the face of the Earth, but if there is any activity, such are rent being paid or mail still being checked at their address for them there is no reason for it.

… SCOTUS have just ruled that states can nullify your voter registration if you haven't voted in recent years.

The Ohio case involved failure to vote in 2 consecutive federal elections, plus failure to respond to a notice sent through the mail, then followed by failure to vote during an additional 4-year period.


 
The law in question does not seem that unreasonable. If you don't vote for over 4 years and don't respond to mail sent to you, it is not an unreasonable assumption that you have moved or don't want to vote anymore. States do need some criteria for cleaning up their voter rolls of people who have moved away.
