The Voting Dead

J. Christian Adams reports on PJMedia that Florida election officials are set to announce that the secretary of state has discovered and purged up to 53,000 dead voters from the voter rolls in Florida. Apparently the dead voters were on the rolls because Florida had not been using the best data available. Florida is now using the nationwide Social Security Death Index for determining which voters should be purged because they are dead.

According to the report there most states don’t use the Social Security Data Index and some election officials won’t remove voter names even they are presented a death certificate.

And why is this important? Because live people are voting for dead people. There is a man named Keaton in Oregon that not only votes for a dead person, he also votes for his dead son. I’m guessing they were close and he knows how the boy would vote.

Both of my parents are dead. Does this mean I will vote for them? Of course not.

They never voted for the same candidates I do.

I’d hate to vote for their candidates and cancel out my vote.
