Texas removes 1 million ineligible voters from voter rolls — finds 30% of noncitizens previously cast ballots

Okies gettin' in on the action too:

Oklahoma election officials have removed more than 450,000 ineligible voters from the state’s rolls ahead of November’s election.

“Voting is our most sacred duty as Americans — and every Oklahoman wants to know their vote is securely cast and properly counted,” said Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt in a press release.

State election officials have removed 453,000 total ineligible voters since 2021, Stitt’s office announced Wednesday.

As part of “routine voter list maintenance,” the state has removed 5,607 felons, 14,993 duplicate registrations, 97,065 dead voters, and 143,682 voters who moved out of state, according to the release. During address verification, officials also canceled 194,962 inactive voters
