In New Jersey, at least 6,600 people who indicated that they were not U.S. citizens were registered to vote at the DMV between 2023 and 2024, according to Governor Mikie Sherrill.
The Governor says that these individuals admitted to not being U.S. citizens but were registered anyway due to a system error. Of those 6,600, approximately 400 of them went ahead and voted even though they were not legally supposed to.
How does this happen?
The National Voter Registration Act of 1993, also known as the Motor Voter Act, is a United States federal law signed by President Bill Clinton in 1993. It requires, among other things, that States offer voter registrations at DMV offices.
This law has historically been enforced heavily by Democratic administrations and in Democratic states. In some states, such as Rhode Island, the state also registers voters at food stamp offices, cash assistance offices, behavioral treatment centers, utility payment grant offices, and even drug treatment centers. Why would they do this? Because Democrats believe that this is their voter base, namely underprivileged people.
Former Civil Rights Justice Department attorney J. Christian Adams says that this is prioritized over Section 8 of the voter laws, which require states to keep their voter rolls free of dead and ineligible voters. He has been warning for years that this could become a dragnet for tracking illegal immigrants but no one listened.
So it should come as no surprise that this happened in New Jersey, a Democratic state, under the Biden administration, also Democratic.
Of course, voter fraud happens under Republican leadership too. It would be crazy to think it doesn’t. So when the media tells you that this never happens, the answer is no longer theoretical. It happened.
The problem is that the same government that insists it never happens now says that it does when it serves their purposes. So why is New Jersey admitting this now?
The Trump administration now claims that China is largely responsible for voter fraud in the U.S. It is hard to take that at face value given the upcoming midterm elections that are not looking promising for Republicans.
