    AustinN4,

    YEP. = 57% of registered voters actually voted in Bexar County on 08NOV16 & that's a record for any recent election.
    (I've worked several "minor" elections where only FIVE percent of registered voters actually voted.)

    peeps,<br>
    <br>
    There are several reasons:<br>
    1. Died,<br>
    2. Moved out of the county/State,<br>
    3. Too old &amp; sick,<br>
    4. Became mentally incompetent/senile,<br>
    5. Disinterested,<br>
    6. Incarcerated or an UNPARDONED felon.<br>
    7. Should never have been registered, due to (for example) being underage or a NON-citizen of the USA<br>
    or<br>
    7. For some other unknown reasons.<br>
    <br>
    Fwiw,, it's VERY expensive to purge the rolls, as it has to be done carefully &amp; essentially one voter at a time by hand. = When I was stationed in a VA county (population: 34,000) in 2011, we decided to purge the voter rolls, got permission/funding from the County Board &amp; started the process.<br>
    (We found almost 2800 roll numbers, who were dead, moved or otherwise no .longer qualified as a voter out of about 16,000 who were registered.)<br>
    <br>
    We found that it cost almost 30.50 per roll number checked.<br>
    (Consider what that process would cost in Bexar, Dallas, Harris or another BIG county!!!)<br>
