Election Integrity Maryland Submits Challenges to Voter Rolls in Frederick County, Maryland

Rockville, MD - January 15, 2014 - Election Integrity Maryland (EIM), one of the Mid-Atlantic's leading election integrity organizations (empowered by True the Vote), today sent challenges to the voter registration rolls maintained by Frederick County. 

This is the first time EIM investigated and questioned voter registration data in Frederick County. EIM examined 900 voter registrations and from this data EIM has challenged 371 records.

Among the challenges, EIM identified:

• Deceased voters that remain on the active voter rolls long after their date of death;
• Voters who do not live at their registered addresses;
• Duplicate voter registrations within Maryland;
• Duplicate voter registrations in another state; and
• Votes listed as active, despite not having voted in as long as the past 10 years.

As found in every set of challenges EIM has filed since February 2012, there were many inactive voters that remain within the data purchased from the State Board of Elections.
