The majority of those removed from the registration rolls were due to moving within the state and not registering at their new address, or because they spent the last two federal elections in inactive status.
747,000 people have been removed from North Carolina’s list of registered voters over the last 20 months by the State Board of Elections, officials announced on Thursday.
The majority of those removed from the registration rolls were due to moving within the state and not registering at their new address, or because they spent the last two federal elections in inactive status.
A total of 289,902 registrations were removed cause the voter moved within the state, 246,311 were removed due to inactive status, and 130,688 were removed because the voter was deceased.
An additional 31,242 were removed because the voter moved from the state, 26,939 were duplicates that were either merged or removed, 18,883 were removed because the voter has a felony conviction, 2,329 were removed at the request of the voter, and an additional 980 were removed because of “other,” for a total of 747,274 removals.
The State Board of Elections noted in the press release that the total number of removals equates to an average of 1,200 removals every day during those 20 months. “The county boards follow careful policies to ensure that only ineligible records are removed, not those of eligible voters.”
