Don’t believe false claims about thousands of dead voters voting 🇺🇸
It's a zombie claim we see during every election cycle: Huge numbers of dead people are voting! And they are all Democrats! Neither is true. Typically when voters die, it's rare that their relatives contact local elections offices to ask that their names be removed from voter rolls. But election offices routinely receive death records from state and federal sources and then remove dead voters' names from voter rolls. Some still end up on the rolls. Occasionally, people illegally cast mail ballots in dead relatives' names, as a Republican did in 2020 in Nevada, but that is rare. That voter was charged with felonies.
