The director of the South Carolina Election Commission released a report Wednesday refuting claims that more 200 dead voters participated during the 2010 election.
Election Commission Executive Director Marci Andino said that 197 of the cases her agency investigated appeared to be results of human error or coincidence and not cases of voter fraud. The other ten cases proved inconclusive.
In a letter to South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson, Andino said her agency spent more than 200 hours examining suspected cases of voter fraud from the 2010 general election.
“Due to the size and scope of the task of examining every claim, the review was limited to the 207 cases related to the 2010 General Election,” Andino said. “Investigation of every claim would require more than 1,000 hours of work by SEC employees.”
More than half of the Election Commission’s 15 employees spent the past four weeks gathering information and determining where errors were made, Andino said.
