Edit: "Fixed" it, but failed to deregister them.

"The latest problem occurred when DMV customers, including some noncitizens, accidentally filled in the wrong voter eligibility response on driver’s license applications and asked staffers to make the corrections, the audit said. The revised responses were not correctly logged.

The error has since been fixed and affected customers will be notified, the DMV said."

They "corrected it" in the sense of allegedly fixing the problem for new applications, but they have done nothing to deregister any of the 1590 who were illegally registered. The most they are doing is sending a letter to those who were improperly registered.

Thanks, I read it again and agree. Interesting that they call this a fix. If they are on the voter rolls, then I'm not comfortable with how they've presented the 'fix'.
