Report Notes:
- In April, a spike in "dropped voters" and "new voters" resulted from the Rhode Island Department of State changing the format of a large number of Voter IDs. The large number of "purged voters" reflects this change of formatting by the state.
- According to the Rhode Island Department of State, after mail ballot applications for the March 2 special election was sent to all active voters, "Voters whose mail ballot applications were returned undeliverable were made inactive," resulting in 12,000 voters being moved from "Active" to "Inactive" status.
