Roll inflation

Voter roll

The official register of eligible voters — its accuracy sets the ceiling on election quality, and both inflation and wrongful removal are integrity failures.

Voter purge

The removal of names from the roll — necessary maintenance when it removes the deceased and relocated, disenfranchisement when it removes eligible voters.

Dead voters claim

The recurring allegation that ballots were cast in deceased people’s names — almost always traceable to roll maintenance lag or record matching error rather than voting.
