A sentence from that article that I love:

"Ten [states] specifically mandate the counting of absentee ballots regardless of the voter’s corporeal status."

"Corporeal status". I love it. I'm probably going to semi-ironically incorporate that phrase into my lexicon

If a person is alive at the time of voting, it makes sense to me to count it. They might die after the election before inauguration too.

Plus removing recently deceased people's already cast votes opens up creative violent ways to help your team which I'm not a fan of either
