Mummified Dead Woman Voted in 2010
She’s been dead since 2008.
Voting records are raising questions amid an investigation into the discovery of a woman’s mummified body in the garage of a foreclosed metro Detroit home.
The body found last Wednesday in Pontiac is that of Pia Farrenkopf — according to her sister, Paula Logan. Authorities investigating the case haven’t released her name, but they have said that the woman apparently died in 2008 at the age of 49.
According to a report in the Detroit Free Press, records show Farrenkopf as voting in the November 2010 gubernatorial election. Officials say, however, that it may represent an administrative error. Oakland County Sheriff Mike Bouchard says the information must be checked out.
Farrenkopf’s body was found March 5 in the back seat of her Jeep Liberty, parked in the attached garage of her home in the 1600 block of Savanna, near Walton Boulevard and Silver Lake Road in Pontiac. The discovery was made just after 5 p.m. by a contractor who was working at the home, which is going through foreclosure.

But if you ask her for an ID before she voted, you are the evil racist.

Well she must of died before November 2008. That’s how the Democrats going over the voter roles saw her active till she skipped that year.
Did they try to contact her or up date the rolls? No, they just decided to do her a favor and cast her vote for her. Seeing as how she was so busy being dead and all.
I wonder if she voted in 2012?

Identified by a sister? six years later?
I don’t have anything to do with my sister, but I do make a point to know if she is alive or not.
Of course, we aren’t from Detroit…
