North Carolina Removes Over 700K People From Voter Rolls Due to ‘Ineligibility’

North Carolina’s State Board of Elections recently announced the removal of 747,000 individuals from the voter registration rolls over the past 20 months.

The action was primarily due to voters being deemed ineligible after failing to update their addresses following moves within the state or not participating in the last two federal elections.

Additional reasons for these removals included deaths, felony convictions, relocations out of state, and voluntary requests for removal.

As a crucial swing state, North Carolina is poised to play a significant role in the upcoming presidential election between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Trump, with Harris polling competitively.

The timing of the removals coincides with a GOP lawsuit claiming the state had not adequately addressed concerns about ineligible voters.

The lawsuit highlighted issues with voter registration forms lacking essential identification information, which the Republicans argue jeopardizes election integrity.

While the state now boasts approximately 7.7 million registered voters, ongoing legal battles and concerns over voter ID laws continue to highlight the contentious atmosphere surrounding elections in North Carolina.
