Officials in Oklahoma have just announced that they’ve removed more than 453,000 ineligible names from the voter rolls, including more than 97,000 dead people and almost 15,000 duplicate registrations that somehow made it into the system.
In addition, 195,000 voters were removed whose address couldn’t be verified and another 144,000 who moved out of the state since 2021.
Officials say they purge their voter rolls every month
Since the 2020 election, republicans across the country have been working to enact laws that will protect the integrity of elections. Fighting against inflated voter rolls, and against automatically sending ballots to everyone on the rolls have been a couple of their key objectives.
Oklahoma is a red state with 4 million people – so the number of names removed amount to about 10% of that population – which could be enough votes to flip the state.
