Vote history
Voters whose mark in that election column differs, including a mark in an election the snapshot did not yet have.
Registration year of added IDs
444,475 of the added IDs have a registration date on or after December 28, 2024. 196,884 were already registered before that, and 0 have no registration date.
Last vote year of removed IDs
Year of the latest ballot mark recorded on the snapshot.
How the comparison works
- The voter key is SOS_VOTERID. Added means the ID is only in the current table. Removed means it is only in the snapshot.
- Blank and NULL are treated as the same value. The age column is not compared.
- An election column that exists on only one side is compared with a blank. A ballot mark in an election added after the snapshot counts as a vote-history change.
