The Montgomery County Board of Elections issued a public statement on January 12, 2026, responding to a Republican National Committee lawsuit against the State and county Boards of Election. The Board defended its voter roll accuracy, citing proactive outreach, participation in the multi-state Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) data-sharing program, and daily removal of deceased voters. The Board also disputed the lawsuit's claim that December 2024 voter registration numbers are "impossibly high," arguing the comparison to 2019–2023 census citizen voting-age population estimates is methodologically flawed.
