What we found

Supports. Multiple outlets report that DHS identified about 400,000 deceased registrants in states using the enhanced SAVE system, with about 68 million records reviewed as of June 22, 2026.[1][2][3][4]

Supports. Mullin, the DHS Secretary, publicly stated at a news conference that the department had identified 400,000 individuals still registered to vote who were deceased.[4][5]

Context. The figures are described as preliminary flags from a SAVE database match that election officials must verify; DHS had not publicly released documentation supporting them.[5][6][7]

Context. A state-level report says the deceased records generally reflect people who died since the last roll maintenance cycle and do not indicate fraudulent voting.[8]
