Decades-Long Noncitizen Voter Registrations Surface Across States

A Fox News analysis highlights a 25-year pattern of noncitizens appearing on US voter rolls, with New Jersey reporting about 6,600 ineligible registrations (fewer than 400 of which reportedly voted) and DHS preliminarily claiming up to 250,000 noncitizens registered to vote in four states. State reviews across Louisiana, Iowa, Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Texas, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, North Carolina, and others have found hundreds to thousands of noncitizen records and some ballots cast. The lack of a uniform federal standard for reporting roll-cleaning makes nationwide scale unclear. Officials, including DOJ, stress that voting by noncitizens is illegal and advocate for stronger audits and reporting to tighten election integrity.
