Connecticut Secretary of State Thomas Says She Has No Confirmation of Federal Voter Fraud Probe
Connecticut Secretary of State Stephanie Thomas stated she has no confirmation that the state is under a federal voter fraud investigation, despite reports that the Department of Homeland Security is launching a coordinated initiative in nine states. While DHS claims to have identified over 24,000 potential noncitizen voters, Thomas emphasized that local registrars have not been approached by federal agents and that standard voter roll maintenance is ongoing. The initiative, which includes field interviews and prosecutorial review, has drawn sharp criticism from state officials and whistleblowers who argue the agency is using untrained personnel to undermine public confidence in the 2026 midterms.
