ALT Fact-checking PA Election Claims: County election officials, not the Department of State, do the important work of keeping voter rolls up to date through a process known as voter list maintenance, and much of this work is done annually, typically between May and July. Their work is carefully regulated by federal and state law, which instructs on how voter records are cancelled and moved from Active to Inactive status. In Pennsylvania, Inactive voters are still eligible to vote by mail and at their polling place if they meet the state ID requirements.
