Delete data file

How do I delete an entire voter file?

Official response from

To remove people from your nation, add them to a list and then use "Batch Delete" to delete them from your nation.

To find the people to delete, you need to search for them using People--> Advanced search. To delete the voters, you can search for any of the following:

  1. Under the IDs section, check the box for state file ID exists. (If the voter data is from the NationBuilder Election Center, you can check the box for NBEC GUID exists)
  2. Under the Origin section, select the import file name from the list under First imported from file
  3. Under the Origin section, select the name of the person who did the imports from the list under Added by.

Any one of those searches will get you the list you are looking for. Select any one of those criteria and you will get the list you need.
