The estimated number of votes thrown out or not counted in the 2025 presidential election is at least 7 to 9 million ballots nationwide, according to investigative analyses of voter purges, disqualified mail-in ballots, rejected provisional ballots, and registration rejections.sdvoice
Key reported numbers include:
4,776,706 voters purged from rolls before the election.
2,121,000 mail-in ballots disqualified for clerical reasons.
1,216,000 provisional ballots rejected and not counted.
At least 585,000 in-precinct cast ballots disqualified.
3.24 million new registrations rejected or not processed in time to vote (some overlap with purges is possible).sdvoice
Adding these together—with some overlap—places the number of ballots not counted due to suppression, procedural error, or legal action at about 7–9 million, a figure supported by independent investigative estimates for the 2024-2025 cycle. This figure is significantly higher than historical averages, reflecting both increased mail-in voting and new legal challenges primarily affecting Democratic-leaning voters. sdvoice
Detailed official state-by-state data for 2025 may not be fully available yet, but these calculations use publicly reported data and methodologies from previous elections, updated for 2025. The majority of such disqualified ballots impacted voters in heavily Democratic precincts or those using mail-in and provisional ballots, according to the cited analyses. sdvoice
