SHARON TYLER FAILS TO FIX VOTER ROLL ISSUE AFTER 32 MONTHS IN OFFICE. COUNTY FACES LIKELY LAWSUIT!

Berrien County Clerk Sharon Tyler and 23 other Michigan Clerks have received notice from the Public Interest Legal Foundation that they have more registered voters than voting age population.
In an article in West Michigan Politics Tyler stated: "this issue has been a priority since she took office in January 2013."

"This was an issue I ran for office on 2012 to resolve," Tyler said. "This is an issue my office has been working on and even hired additional staff."

Great... so the real question is why has it not been dealt with in the 32 months she has been Clerk, especially if this was the issue she made a priority, ran on and hired additional staff to resolve?

And at additional cost to Berrien County's hardworking taxpayers!!

Taking a look at just the City of Benton Harbor, according to the 2013 Census figures there are only 6,739 citizens over the age of 18. 
Yet according to the voter rolls in the 2014 November General Election there were 9,900 Registered Voters! 

Assuming every single person the age of 18 or older registered to vote, that still leaves Berrien County with 3,161 phantom voters in just the City of Benton Harbor!!

From WashTimes:
"America’s voter rolls are so bloated that dozens of counties have more people registered than there are adults living there, according to two new studies released Thursday that the authors said could lead to lawsuits forcing states to clean things up.
True the Vote, a Texas group that works for clean elections, counted 136 counties with voter registration rates of more than 100 percent of their adult population.
Meanwhile the Public Interest Legal Foundation, a public interest law firm based in Alexandria, used a slightly different methodology and counted 141 counties.
“At the end of the day you can point to the Justice Department for allowing this to go on,” Mr. Churchwell said, blaming the Obama administration for not pursuing easy cases that could have pressured jurisdictions to keep their voter rolls clean.
The National Voter Registration Act, better known as “Motor Voter” because it allows registering at motor vehicle bureaus, also requires states keep their voter rolls clean, in order to try to prevent fraudulent votes from being cast."
