uneliminated

Not yet removed

Uneliminated means not removed, ruled out, or gotten rid of.

The word appears most often in contexts involving competition or systematic exclusion: Three teams remain uneliminated heading into the final round.

In scientific or investigative contexts, it describes possibilities that haven't been dismissed: Several suspects remained uneliminated.
