Election integrity group claims to find thousands of potentially invalid voters in San Antonio

SAN ANTONIO - A record 1,285,119 people were registered to vote in Bexar County as of Wednesday afternoon.

Local election integrity activists claim that number may include thousands of people who have died or moved away. They warn that failing to update the voter file makes elections vulnerable to fraud.

The group claims to have identified 54,000 registered voters who are likely ineligible because they died years ago or no longer live at that address.

They say they've been able to verify four thousand of those by checking obituaries and the postal system's change of address database.

Maybe get a read job. One that supports their community or even, good grief, their country.

Just because a name appears in an obit, doesn't mean it is the person on the voter rolls.

They are trying everything they can to disenfranchise likely Democratic voters....These people make me sick!

Why is there outrage.
The dead or moved away should be taken off but there is no crime.
Although election rolls should be updated frequently for people who should be removed.
