Right?
Like I said, our election system is very, very flawed. There will always be problems.

No.
There are absentee votes for a good reason.
As you said, the system is flawed, but I also never said that election commisions should check to see if absentee voters have died. It would be an impossible task as well as statistically insignificant.
That being said, I stand by my earlier statement and when a voter is recognized as deceased, then they should be taken off the elegible voter list and any further votes from them discounted...even if they had filled it out while alive.
