State Records Show Deceased Voter Rose From the Grave To Cast Mail-in Ballot

On Oct. 9 this year, Fred Stokes Jr. was mailed a ballot in Clark County, Nevada, for the upcoming presidential election just less than 30 days away. Three weeks later, the county confirmed the ballot’s receipt on Halloween and marked it off as “completed.” There remained only one problem with Stokes’ absentee ballot counted on the fall holiday: Fred Stokes Jr. had been dead for three years. . .

Public records from the Clark County Registrar, however, show Stokes Jr. appeared to rise from the grave to vote in the November contest.

The Nevada Republican Party dispatched a staffer to the address shown on Stokes Jr.’s registration. At the address was a person who was told to be “a female resident” but who refused to share her name. She said Stokes Jr. had indeed lived at the residence but had passed away in 2017. She noted, however, that a man named Fred Stokes III was still alive and voted at the same address.

County records show Stokes III voted in person on Oct. 23, registered as a Democrat.

The revelation comes on the heels of a Nevada lawsuit filed by the Trump campaign Thursday alleging that upwards of 10,000 people voted who either live out of state or are deceased. (Read more from “State Records Show Deceased Voter Rose From the Grave To Cast Mail-in Ballot” HERE)
