Many voting precincts purge their registry by using obituaries and other information gained from other entities. If someone who votes, but has died at the time of the election, their vote does not count. The Pew Center estimates 1.8 million people on the US voter rolls have died.

Do lifelong Republicans vote Democratic once they are in the cemetery in Chicago?

You don't vote once you're dead During the 2008 election, many dead were registered to vote, and yes, most voted Democrat. The ballot in America is a secret ballot. No one knows how you vote. People who die are not removed from the polling list on the premise that it will be very difficult for someone who is dead to vote. While a living person could conspire to vote a dead person in some manner, it is against the law and there is not much electoral benefit in voting a dead person.
