米大統領選の開票が続いている中、非営利組織「司法観察（Judicial Watch）」が今年9月に発表した調査報告書によると、アメリカ29州の353郡で有権者登録率が100%を超えたことが明らかになった。
当該研究報告書は米各州がオンラインに公開している最新有権者名簿のデータと、米国勢調査局の2014年から2018年までの最新5年間人口比率を比較したところ、353郡の有権者登録者数が登録要件に満たす年齢、つまり18歳以上である市民よりも180万人オーバーしていることを明らかにした。つまり、これらの郡における有権者登録率が100%を超える。
「司法観察」の責任者トム・フィットン氏は「この調査報告は、29の州353の郡において180万人の幽霊『投票者』がいることを明らかにした」と述べた。29の州は民主党を支持する「青い州」であるワシントン州、ニューヨーク州、メイン州と「揺れる州」ミシガン州、コロラド州などを含む。
