January 2nd, 2024 - New Jersey Citizens for New Jersey Election Integrity (C4NJEI) has formally submitted evidence of voter irregularities from New Jersey's November 2024 general election to the New Jersey office of the Department of Justice. The flagged issues, uncovered through meticulous analysis, reveal cases of deceased voters casting ballots and individual voters casting more than one ballot.
Deceased Voters Voting
The
analysis utilized a commercial death data service to cross-check voter rolls against death records. This service, widely used by pension funds, includes obituary verification to ensure accuracy. The review focused on two voter categories:
- Vote-by-Mail Ballots: More than 820,000 mail-in voters were analyzed, resulting in 465 individuals confirmed as deceased before November 5th but recorded as having voted.
- In-person Voters: More than 179,000 voters aged 84 or older who voted in person were analyzed, and 20 were identified as deceased but still listed as having cast ballots.
