COLUMBUS, Kan. (AP) — A southeast Kansas county is working to cull its list of registered voters of people who have died or moved out of the county.

The Joplin Globe reports that Cherokee County is starting a mass mailing to refine the county’s list of registered voters.

Kansas state election numbers say Cherokee County has 102.6 percent of its voting-age population registered to vote. Two other counties — Lane and Rawlins — also have more than 100 percent voter registration.

Census estimates from 2009 to 2013 put the number of people eligible to vote in Cherokee County at 15,970, or about 570 fewer than the 16,540 actual people registered to vote.

County Clerk Rodney Edmondson says the county will start printing the voter cards Thursday and mail them out gradually.
