Murphy says he didn’t know about MVC voter-registration glitch that added non-citizens
Former Gov. Phil Murphy says he was unaware of a Motor Vehicle Commission software glitch that mistakenly registered about 6,600 non-citizens to New Jersey’s voter rolls between 2023 and 2024, with fewer than 400 casting ballots. Gov.-elect Mikie Sherrill has ordered an independent investigation, criticized the prior administration, and replaced MVC leadership as she pushes to address the issue and expand ballot access.
