They Went and Died in Tasmania
JUSTICE BREYER: What are -- what are they supposed to do? That is, every year a certain number of people die and every year a certain number move to California. All right. We don't want them on the voter roll. That used to be a big problem, voting dead people. Okay? What should the state do?
MR. SMITH: Well, the dead -- the dead people aren't a problem, Your Honor. There are authoritative lists at both states and the federal government level.
JUSTICE BREYER: They went and died in Hawaii, I don't know, they went and died in Alaska. They went and died in Tasmania. Is -- is Rhode Island supposed to look at the Tasmanian voting records or hospital records or what are -- what -- it's a serious question.
