Additional findings
- Of the 8,103 removed voters, 2,214 (27.3%) had previously voted.
- In addition, there were 27,216 voter history records related to the 2,214 removed voters DELETED from the state’s voter history files. The average number of elections that each removed voter participated in is 12.
- Multiple shared addresses appear among the removed records (some addresses linked to 2–4 removed voters).
- For context, the average number of voter removals over the prior six months was approximately 8,478 per month. The 8,103 removals in roughly one week represent a clear acceleration compared with the recent monthly average.
Important qualification
Using the data the State of New Jersey makes available through public sources such as OPRA, it is not possible to distinguish which of the 8,103 removals were related to the approximately 6,600 non-citizens the Sherrill administration previously acknowledged had been registered through the Motor Vehicle Commission, versus routine voter-roll maintenance (deaths, moves, cancellations, or other standard list-maintenance activity). The publicly released files do not contain flags or coding that separate the two categories.
Given the recent critical disclosure that the New Jersey voter rolls included ineligible, non-US citizens, Citizens for NJ Election Integrity calls on the state Division of Elections and the county Boards of Elections to release more granular data and provide clearer public reporting that distinguishes the specific reasons for this large-scale removal of 8,103 individuals from the voter rolls, so the public can independently verify the composition of all statutorily required list-maintenance activity.
