Battleground state election officials from both parties are pushing back against a falsehood that has proven pervasive ahead of the 2024 election: that noncitizens are voting in large numbers, NBC News reports.
Secretaries of state, election directors and county officials from six swing states detailed how they ensure that only Americans vote in presidential elections at a conference aimed at stressing the integrity and functionality of the countrys election system.

(223 posts)When someone comes to the US they are almost always looking for work. If they are subject to deportation they keep a low profile as not to get caught. Why would anyone in this situation try and vote? Why take the risk of getting caught and deported? The simple answer is they don't. Oh wait I forgot George Soros is paying them. Yeah makes perfect sense, if you're a idiot Maggot.

They check . You can't just drive a buss load of people and have them vote. Unless they are already registered.
Mail in ballots are checked against the precinct list.
If you aren't registered you might be given a provisional ballot which would be held until they register you.
