Commentary: Voter Rolls Are Essential to Victory in the Election Integrity Fight

Voter rolls are the most important election integrity documents. They tell election officials who is eligible to vote. The voter rolls also tell election officials where to send mail ballots, so it is even more important that they are accurate in states that automatically send registered voters mail ballots.

It is essential that states have accurate and up to date voter rolls. This includes removing individuals who moved, have died, and duplicate registrants. Many states across the country are failing to do this essential voter list maintenance that is required by federal law.

When people pass away and remain on the voter rolls, it is a problem. That means election officials believe these individuals are still eligible to vote. There are people who will take advantage of these vulnerabilities in the electoral process and cast ballots for these deceased individuals.

    My Mom passed away in 2010, and Dad in 2018. After Dad passed and for a couple of years after, I made sure their names were no longer nor reappeared on the voter rolls in the town they lived in for almost 50 years. The small town they lived in did their job cleaning the voter rolls. Now had they lived in Bridgeport, I would be checking the voter rolls every year forever.
