The Board of Elections in North Carolina has removed 747,000 individuals from its voter rolls due to ineligibility within the last 20 months, according to The Hill. Most people removed from the voter rolls were determined ineligible because they moved and didn’t register their new address or had inactive status. “Other reasons for removal included death, felony convictions, out-of-state moves and personal requests for removal,” The Hill noted. The list of those removed included: Moved within state (duplicate) – 289,902 Two federal elections in inactive status – 246,311 Deceased – 130,688 Moved from state – 31,242 Duplicate/Merged duplicate – 26,939 Felony conviction – 18,883 Request from voter – 2,329 Other – 980 Just in: The North Carolina Election Board has officially removed 750,000 names from the voter rolls. This includes 130,000 dead people and 290,000 registrations that were duplicates. pic.twitter.com/hDFXVhS579 — The Calvin Coolidge Project (@TheCalvinCooli1) September 26, 2024 North Carolina purges over 130,000 deceased voters from its rolls. Democrats in shambles. pic.twitter.com/sKt5Hpta1w — Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) September 26, 2024 From The Hill: North Carolina is one of seven swing states likely to decide the presidential election between Vice President Harris and former President Trump. Only one Democrat this century, former President Obama in 2008, has won the state in a presidential contest, but Harris has been polling close to Trump. The state is also home to a tough gubernatorial contest between Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson and Democratic Attorney General Josh Stein. The purge comes just a few weeks after North Carolina Republicans filed a lawsuit that said the state had failed to act on complaints about ineligible people on voter rolls. In the GOP lawsuit, a Wake County resident in North Carolina claimed that voter registration forms in that county did not included driver’s license and Social Security numbers.

Dillon (@APDillon_) September 26, 2024 Daily Caller reports: The Republican National Committee (RNC) and the North Carolina Republican Party (NCGOP) filed a lawsuit in August alleging the state failed to fulfill their duties and remove ineligible names from voter rolls. “Confidence in the integrity of our electoral processes is essential in the functioning of our participatory democracy. Voter fraud drives honest citizens out of the democratic process and breeds distrust of our government. Voters who fear their legitimate votes will be outweighed by fraudulent ones will feel disenfranchised,” the lawsuit states. State officials identified nine potential non-citizens — which some believe is an undercount — as registered to vote in North Carolina, WRAL reported. However, an NCSBE spokesperson said Thursday that investigations are underway as it is currently unknown whether the nine are illegal immigrants. Voters in North Carolina are required to show photo ID per a new rule first enforced during the fall 2023 municipal elections, according to the NCSBE. The swing state also requires that all voters be U.S. citizens, but proof of this status is not needed to register.
