Try actually reading the article!

A now 73 year old, who's registered as 164 years old currently, would -- at best -- have to have claimed to have been 112 at the time of his (or her, or its) first registration.

From the article: Board officials chalked up the implausible age snafu to previous practices that allowed residents not to provide their exact birthdays when registering to vote.

Some of the new voters — mostly women — simply wrote that they were “21+” — above the legal voting age.

Since they registered under the old system, the board grandfathered them in and listed 01/01/1850 as their DOBs in the electronic voting rolls.

Agreed, but this doesn't help dispel the whiff of fraud:

To prevent fraud, officials would still need a written statement from voters certifying their age, even if they divulge it over the phone.
Ryan said the matter will be revisited after the Nov. 4 election.
