The Non Citizen Voting Myth: A Tired Excuse for Election Interference The Trump administration has repeatedly claimed that non citizens are registered to vote in US elections, often using this claim to justify restrictive voter ID laws and other measures aimed at suppressing votes.
However, the latest iteration of this claim – that over 250,000 non citizens are registered to vote in four states – is particularly egregious.
This claim relies on an analysis of commercial databases, which can lead to false positives and significantly overestimate the number of potential non citizens on voter rolls.
