THE DECEASED
A recent claim from a 2020 Michigan election review has received fresh attention after records were presented showing that 17,327 Michigan voters were matched to obituary records‼️
The review required a massive undertaking but isn't conclusive because of the passage of time.
The names were identified by COMPARING VOTER RECORDS WITH PUBLICLY AVAILABLE DEATH notices.
The review raises questions about whether ballots MAY have been cast in the names of dead people. The problem arises when living people vote but die afterward.....then these "reviews" are conducted long after the election cycle and "cast" doubt on the legitimacy of the results.....
🚨 PEOPLE WHO ARE UNINFORMED ABOUT THE PROCESS NEED TO UNDERSTAND that THIS is why the "deceased" SHOULD remain on voter rolls and designated AS "DECEASED".......
THIS may be one of my radical thinking "outside-the-box" ideas but at least I'M THINKING‼️ #NewtonSaidIt
▪️The only way this review was even possible is because the "deceased voter" COULD BE IDENTIFIED after-the-fact via obituaries.....
▪️Leaving them on the roles with a "DECEASED" interface designation automatically prevents the identity from be "used" to cast a ballot with a layer of scrutiny to be challenged. It would set off an earlier alarm and flag the ballot.....
(There already is an "inactive voter" designation that gets attention).
▪️If the DECEASED are removed, it's open season on Identity theft with little likelihood of detection, WHEN OR IF that Identity casts a fraudulent ballot.
GIVE THAT SOME THOUGHT......🤔
You heard it here from me first.
