Breitbart ran a misinformation article that had an element of truth, but completely misrepresented the reality. Yes, the secretary caught 846 dead people who cast ballots, but here is the reality that not only proves this was not fraud, but that the system catches erroneous ballots.

These were registered voters that were alive when they applied for their absentee ballots, but died between then and when the votes were counted, keep in mind many absentee voters vote weeks ahead of time. The system is good enough to catch dead people even when they recently died, which is obviously a good thing.

So this is not an indicator of massive fraud, most states have purged and repurged their registration rolls, focusing on urban districts of course. My guess is that if they would purge their elderly rural rolls they would find a target rich hit list.

Absentee voting is safer than in person voting, it offers the hard ballot count that many red states do not want when they are counting on electronic counts that have no hard backup and ability to recount.
