Nevada removes 162,519 names from voter registration rolls

(The Center Square) – The Nevada Secretary of State’s Office announced Monday that it had removed 162,519 voters from its voter registrations. Furthermore, the state also deactivated 37,749 voters.

In total, the state removed 200,268 people from being able to vote.

“The Secretary of State’s Office takes the transparency, security and accessibility of our elections very seriously, and is focused on supporting the counties’ efforts to clean the voter rolls,” said Secretary of State Francisco Aguilar.

“The implementation of our statewide voter registration and elections management system will continue strengthening our ability to streamline list maintenance processes and provide data to the public,” he added.

This voter roll clean-up was done in compliance with state and federal law. Currently, county election officials in Nevada are sending notices to people. These notices notify people that they need to have their address updated or canceled due to moving.

Nevada counties can determine if people are inactive voters or cancel voters, which lets them remove these people from their voter rolls.

The counties with the most notices sent out were Clark County, Lyon County and Carson City County.

Clark County sent out 35,845 notices, while Lyon County issued 9,412 and Carson City County dispatched 4,722.

Nevada’s second-biggest county, Washoe County, has 341,906 registered voters but only circulated six notices.

For the total number of canceled voters, Clark County, Nevada’s largest county and home to Las Vegas, canceled 135,266 from their voter rolls. This accounted for 84% of the people the state eliminated from its voter rolls.

Clark County also led the way in deactivating voters, with 34,310, which was 91 percent of the deactivated voters.
