In an effort to secure election integrity in 2024, Judicial Watch has done some digging into the voter rolls of several locations – including Washington, D.C. – and uncovered complete chaos.
The most shocking discovery revealed by the watchdog group’s investigation was that eligible voters in Washington, D.C. are registered at the rate of 131 percent!

Though its numbers were the craziest, Washington, D.C. wasn’t the only place where voter registration rates violated all laws of logic.
Judicial Watch has sent letters to the nation’s capital, California, and Illinois with a warning to clean up their voter rolls or else be sued for violation of the National Voter Registration Act.
Since receiving the letter, D.C. has said they will remove over 103,000 ineligible names from its voter rolls, with California and Illinois making similar promises.
How is this possible?
Probably just a mistake, right?
With 2024 fast approaching, it couldn’t possibly mean there’s anything sinister at hand like voter fraud, or, God forbid, ELECTION RIGGING…could it?
The watchdog group Judicial Watch has done a deep dive into the voter rolls of Washington, DC and some other places and found an absolute mess.
In Washington, DC, eligible voters are registered at a rate of 131%, violating standards of basic math.
It’s probably just an…

The Washington Examiner commented on Judicial Watch’s findings:
Several states and the District of Columbia have been hit by an election watchdog for failing to clean up their voter rolls of the dead and ineligible.
Judicial Watch said it just finished investigating registrations and sent letters to the district, California, and Illinois warning that they are violating the National Voter Registration Act by not cleaning up the rolls.
In the case of Washington, D.C., Judicial Watch said the voting rolls revealed a much higher number than are eligible to vote.
“D.C.’s total registration rate — its total number of registrations divided by the most recent census estimates of its citizen voting-age population — is greater than 131%,” said the review.
Here’s the official statement straight from Judicial Watch:
Judicial Watch announced today that it sent notice letters to election officials in the District of Columbia, California, and Illinois, notifying them of evident violations of the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) of 1993, based on their failure to remove inactive voters from their registration rolls. The letters point out that these jurisdictions publicly reported removing few or no ineligible voter registrations under a key provision of the NVRA. The letters threaten federal lawsuits unless the violations are corrected in a timely fashion. In response to Judicial Watch’s inquiries, Washington, DC, officials admitted that they had not complied with the NVRA, promptly removed 65,544 outdated names from the voting rolls, promised to remove 37,962 more, and designated another 73,522 registrations as “inactive.”
The NVRA requires states to “conduct a general program that makes a reasonable effort to remove” from the official voter rolls “the names of ineligible voters” who have died or changed residence. The law requires registrations to be cancelled when voters fail to respond to address confirmation notices and then fail to vote in the next two general federal elections. In 2018, the Supreme Court confirmed that such removals are mandatory (Husted v. A. Philip Randolph Inst., 138 S. Ct. 1833, 1841-42 (2018)).
Federal law directs the Election Assistance Commission (EAC) to submit a report to Congress every second year assessing how states are complying with the NVRA. Federal regulations require states to provide data to the EAC for use in this report. On June 29, 2023, the EAC posted data from the most recent surveys it sent to the states and the District of Columbia for the reporting period from November 2020 through November 2022.
Based on the data contained in this report, Judicial Watch contacted a number of states and Washington, DC, to inquire about their compliance with federal law and to request public records. After processing the responses to these communications, Judicial Watch sent notice of violation letters to Washington, DC, California, and Illinois, detailing their non-compliance with the NVRA.
Riddle me this: if there is no voter fraud, then why is there 131% of eligible voters registered to vote in DC?https://t.co/iTavDs3nBD
