One correction, if memory serves, once a person is registered to vote in a specific location, they remain registered until they miss a US Presidential election. After missing a Presidential election, the person needs to reregister. Therefore, a dead person will only remain on the voter roles until after the next Presidential election.
As for the example about the prestuffed metal balet box, There are a few cities which were known for this behavior. Chicago and New York City both come to mind as large practitioners of this practice, between 1890 and 1915. In both of these cities, the democrats were caught doing so. In fact, it was the practice in New York City which earned the dems the monicker of the donkey and the republicans the elephant by press cartoonists. All that said, both parties were caught using such practices at various times and in various localities. This is all well-documented in US history.
