at least 500,000 registered voters currently listed on the Secretary’s voter rolls for Arizona are deceased or no longer reside in Arizona. 9.And a review of other reliable data sources shows that Arizona has between 1,060,000 and 1,270,000 unaccounted-for voters on the state voter rolls. 10.Either way, at a minimum, reliable data shows that Arizona’s voter rolls contain at least 500,000 voters that should not be currently registered. 11.Removing registered voters who have died is one of the ways voter rolls must, under Section 8, be maintained. 12.In looking at Arizona deaths compared to voter file removals, from December 2020 to the end of November 2022 (the “Study Period”), there were approximately 20,000 to 35,000 registered voters who died and were not removed from Arizona’s voter rolls. This amounts to a removal shortage for deceased voters of 20%–35%. Meaning that, of the approximately 143,278 Arizona citizens of voting age who died during the study period, only 108,103 were removed from the voter rolls. 13.Additionally, for Maricopa County during the Study Period, the Election Administration and Voting Survey (“EAVS”) conducted by the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (“EAC”) shows that 752,387 voter registration confirmation notices were sent to voters listed on the registration rolls in Maricopa County to determine if they still lived at the location where they were registered to vote. And while the data shows that 131,682 voters were removed for various reasons from the notice batch, there are no reported voter responses or removals by the Secretary accounting for the status of the remaining 620,000 notice letters
and the kicker,,,,most problems in Maricopa. Shocker!
Unlike Maricopa County, in the remaining Arizona counties, nearly every notice letter that went out was accounted for in EAVS. Maricrapa is at least 80% of the state?
