As the November presidential election comes ever closer, one state has put forth an incredible effort to clean up its voter rolls.
Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt’s office reports that, since 2021, nearly half a million ineligible voters have been purged from the state’s rolls. Of the 453,000 removed, 97,000 were deceased, 56,000 were felons, 15,000 were duplicate registrations, and a whopping 195,000 did not verify their address. Additionally, 144,000 were removed due to moving out of state, and new legislation allows those voters who relocate to be removed quickly after they leave Oklahoma.
BREAKING: Oklahoma officials just announced that they have removed 450,000 ineligible names from the voter rolls, including 100,000 dead people and 15,000 duplicate registrations that somehow got pushed into the system

This is music to the ears of those with concerns that untended voter rolls provide the opportunity for voter fraud in numbers large enough to manipulate election outcomes.
X users discussed the topic, as well as whether other states are doing all they can to make sure their voter rolls are up-to-date with eligible voters only.
Texas removed 1 million, Oklahoma removed 450k
Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and quite frankly every other state in the country has a lot of verifying and removing to do as well

It makes you wonder how many of these blue states are actually blue?

This is appalling I have lost my youngest daughter and I grieve to this day .I would be very irate and upset if I found out they were stealing her name/identity and voting in her name in any election …. It’s a degrace to the deceased and their families and it’s identity fraud…

What are the chances to that 90% or more of the names removed from voter rolls are affiliated to Dems, pretty high I’d say

This is ridiculous. Imagine all the other states that should be doing this that aren’t.

All of the states need to continue to do this up until the day of voting.
The fact that ONE illegal vote is being cast, is ridiculous.
We cannot stop until there is no way for people to cheat at our elections.
