Official investigations and audits have found no evidence of 100,000 illegal voters casting ballots in Georgia. Figures involving the number "100,000" in Georgia election discussions primarily stem from legal challenges to the 2020 election results or from routine, legally mandated voter roll maintenance.Clarifying the 100,000 FigureThe number 100,000 appears in two distinct contexts regarding Georgia elections, neither of which represents verified illegal voting:2020 Election Legal Challenges: Following the November 2020 presidential election, the Trump campaign filed lawsuits challenging the validity of more than 100,000 votes in Georgia. These claims of widespread irregularities were rejected by state and federal courts due to a lack of evidence. Subsequent recounts and audits confirmed the final certified results.Routine Voter Roll Maintenance: In 2019 and 2021, the Georgia Secretary of State conducted routine maintenance of the state's voter list. In both instances, approximately 100,000 obsolete or inactive voter files (belonging to people who had moved out of state, passed away, or not voted in several consecutive major election cycles) were slated for removal to keep records up to date. Federal courts upheld these routine purges as legal and constitutional.Findings on Noncitizen and Illegal VotingState election officials enforce strict citizenship checks at the time of registration, including utilizing Georgia's Real ID system. Comprehensive investigations indicate that actual illegal voting is exceedingly rare:State Audits: A comprehensive audit of Georgia's 8 million voter registrations completed by the Secretary of State's office found just 20 noncitizens on the voter rolls, all of whom were flagged for removal.Historical Data: Official reviews indicate that out of more than 32 million votes cast in Georgia since 1992, only 139 were confirmed to have been cast by noncitizens.Preventative Checks: A multi-year state investigation into potential noncitizen registration attempts between 1997 and 2022 identified 1,634 individuals. However, the state’s verification systems successfully blocked all of them from registering until they could legally provide proof of U.S. citizenship.Voter ResourcesFor verified and non-partisan information regarding voter rules, registration status, and upcoming logistics, visit official government platforms:Verify your current registration status via the Georgia My Voter Page.Review general criteria and state regulations on the Georgia Secretary of State Elections Division.AI can make mistakes, so double-check responses
