Secretary of State is an ass.

Two months before the presidential election, thousands of registered Texas voters are receiving letters asking them to verify they are not dead.

The nearly 77,000 letters, called notices of examination, were sent out by election officials to comply with a 2011 law passed by the Legislature requiring the secretary of state's office to cross-reference the voter rolls with the Social Security Administration's enormous death master file to determine if a voter could be deceased.

The secretary of state's office intended to send the letters of examination sooner, but the redistricting battle held up the process.
