This bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 201.13, by adding a new subdivision that mandates the removal of deceased voters from the statewide voter registration system. Specifically, it requires county auditors to change a voter's status to "deceased" and subsequently remove them from the registration system. This provision is effective the day following final enactment.

Additionally, the bill includes a retroactive requirement for county auditors to remove all voters marked as "deceased" from the statewide voter registration system by June 1, 2027. This ensures that the voter registration system is updated to reflect accurate and current voter statuses, thereby enhancing the integrity of the electoral process. This section, like the previous one, is also effective the day following final enactment.
