A report from the Puerto Rico-based investigative journalism firm, the Centro de Periodismo Investigativo (CPI) report has found that hundreds of thousands of deceased individuals in the commonwealth remain registered active voters in the General Registry of Voters (RGE).

The investigators analyzed data from the RGE, interviewed sources from major political parties in the territory, spoke with individuals in the Puerto Rico State Commission on Elections (CEE) and assessed hundreds of other documents.

The CPI discovered widespread irregularities in the electoral process in Puerto Rico. For instance, the CPI found that at least 5,872 deceased individuals who passed away between 2015 and September 2020 were still marked as active voters in the RGE. Some were even able to vote in the 2016 and 2020 elections after they had been marked as deceased.

The RGE also includes around 2,865 voters who would be over 100 years old, with some having birth dates in the 1800s. Out of a sample of 450 of these centenarian voters, the CPI found that fewer than two percent had been excluded from the voter rolls due to death. Shockingly, the investigation uncovered records of a voter named Luquillo, born in 1828, who reportedly “reactivated” his registration to cast a ballot in the 2020 election.

The discrepancies do not end there. The RGE contains 682,938 active or inactive voters over the age of 80, yet the 2023 Census Community Survey lists only 221,216 living individuals of that age group in Puerto Rico.

Similarly, cross-referencing conducted by the CPI between the RGE and the commonwealth’s Central Office of the Demographic Registry confirmed that there were at least 155,611 deceased individuals who were registered voters between 2015 and 2022. The CPI could not analyze the deaths before 2015 and in 2023 as the registry refused to provide death records during those years due to ongoing legal battles.

The CPI concludes that nearly 900,000 deceased individuals are listed as either active, inactive or excluded voters in the RGE’s database, which contains the personal data of nearly five million voters.

Puerto Rico practices widespread electoral fraud and the CEE does nothing about it

Aside from dead people voting, the CPI also uncovered other kinds of electoral fraud such as submission of false endorsements, exploitation of personal data from RGE and “list clearing” at polling stations on election day to benefit candidates.

“List clearing” involves using the RGE or party membership records to conduct false transactions on behalf of voters, including endorsing candidates or submitting early vote requests in the name of incapacitated, elderly or deceased individuals. These votes have been cast by citizens who are bedridden, mentally incapacitated or dead. Many of these individuals are still listed in the electoral rolls and were recorded as having voted in the last three election cycles.

The CPI also found that political activists, mobilizers and electoral managers employed by political parties are instrumental in the fraud. These managers, often former employees of the CEE, can access voter information and manipulate it for the benefit of their chosen candidates. Several sources with direct knowledge confirmed that these managers charge candidates for getting endorsements, often forging signatures or falsely claiming endorsements on behalf of real or deceased voters.

Moreover, mass submission of early voting requests, which is directly prohibited by the Electoral Code of 2020, is another electoral fraud. Article 9.38 of the code states that early voting requests must be submitted individually by each voter, yet the CEE allows large batches of such requests to be processed.

In short, the CEE has shown neither the capacity nor the will to address these issues. The CEE has failed to oversee the issuance and handling of the documents necessary for voting.
