Voter Registration Cancellation Form for Deceased Voters

Cancel Voter Registration for Deceased Voters

Losing a loved one is difficult, and dealing with administrative matters during grief can feel overwhelming. This voter registration cancellation form helps families notify election officials about deceased voters in a secure, dignified and straightforward way.

Why This Form Is Needed

Maintaining accurate voter rolls is essential for election integrity. When a voter passes away, their registration should be cancelled to prevent fraud and ensure accurate record-keeping. Most jurisdictions require official notification from family members or legal representatives, along with supporting documentation like a death certificate.

This template streamlines the cancellation process by providing a clear, respectful form that collects all necessary information in one place—eliminating the need for multiple office visits or confusing paperwork during an already difficult time.

Who Should Use This Form

This form is designed for:

• County election offices and registrars of voters managing voter roll maintenance
• Municipal clerks and city administrators handling vital records and election administration
• State election boards coordinating voter registration databases
• Family members or legal representatives who need to cancel registration for deceased relatives
• Funeral homes and estate attorneys assisting families with post-death administrative tasks
