Murphy says he was unaware of NJ software glitch that added noncitizens to voter rolls
TL;DR Summary
Gov. Mikie Sherrill says a pre-office software glitch at the Motor Vehicles Commission led to about 6,600 noncitizens being registered to vote in 2023–24, with roughly 400 of them voting; former Gov. Phil Murphy says he wasn’t aware of the error and a review is underway. The DoJ is seeking identities of those registered, while Republicans press for answers. A contractor disputes the existence of a glitch, but officials say the overall impact is small relative to New Jersey’s 6.7 million voters and there’s no evidence any election was swayed.
