Illinois Conservative Union’s (ICU) Election Integrity Program is introducing a new ICU Initiative called “Let Them Rest in Peace!."

ICU's head Carol Davis says the group "wants the bad guys to stop harassing dead people. We think it’s mean to dredge up the dear departed every election cycle and force dead people to vote from the grave. Let them Rest in Peace already!" 

ICU's Election Integrity Program is working hand-in-hand with the national legal group Liberty Counsel to pursue FOIA information that election boards throughout Illinois are refusing to open for public accountability.

The details of the group's progress and their new "Let Them Rest in Peace!" effort can be found at their website: http://www.ieip.org

There, they list the reasons they're pursuing this challenging effort:

WHY CLEAN THE VOTER ROLLS?

  • Helping to maintain clean voter rolls is non-partisan.
  • Every voter, no matter their political party, should want to make sure their vote is not cancelled by an ineligible voter who fraudulently votes.
  • Inaccurate voter rolls are a major problem across the U.S. costing taxpayers $$$.Publish
  • Local Election Authorities (EAs)/County Clerks might not make cleaning voter rolls a priority
  • Did you know that Federal law mandates that local EAs must clean and maintain the voter rolls? 
  • The law is spelled out in section 8(i) of the Federal National Voter Registration Act (NVRA, signed into law in 1993).
  • The Federal NVRA preempts state law
  • If your local EAs/County Clerks aren’t maintaining the rolls, they are in violation of FEDERAL LAW.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CLEAN VOTER ROLLS?

  • Clean rolls can be a significant cost-savings for EAs/County Clerks and taxpayers
  • Accurate rolls make it easier to vote and harder to cheat
  • Anyone can play an important role in helping to clean and maintain the voter rolls

WHAT IS THE PROCESS TO CLEAN THE VOTER ROLLS?

  • Contact your local Precinct Committeeman, Township Chairman or County Chairman of your preferred political party (Republican https://illinois.gop/, Democrat https://www.ildems.com/)
  • Tell them you want to volunteer to help remove deceased voters from the voter rolls.
  • If you don’t have a Precinct Committeeman (PC) in your precinct, volunteer to become a PC or an Assistant PC, or team up with a friend to volunteer
  • Removing deceased voters is a clear-cut process 
  • Focus on removing deceased voters for now. (Removing voters who have relocated is a bit more complex). 
  • Using the local voter list, look at the age of the voter (Most PC lists will show voter age, but not birth date for security reasons).
  • As a start, search online for voters on the list who are 70+ years old. If you have time, you can search other names too. 
  • Find a First Name/Last Name/DOB and match data with an obituary, the Social Security Death Index, or other reliable documentation to show the voter is deceased.
  • A death certificate for the deceased individual from their relative makes removal easy. 
  • A signed affidavit from a relative of the deceased might also be accepted (Download legal affidavit here. Download a sample form you can use to notify the EA here).
  • Be sure to keep a copy of all records submitted to the EA/County Clerk.
  • Follow up in a few weeks to make sure those voters have been removed.
  • Precinct Committeemen across Illinois tell us they have submitted the names of deceased voters to have them removed from the rolls, but years later that voter is still on their precinct list!
  • If the deceased voter has not been removed, ask the EA/County Clerk to tell you why.
  • If they cannot give you a legitimate reason why they aren’t removing deceased voters, remind them that they are in violation of FEDERAL LAW.
