Illegal Aliens Added to Voter Rolls by DMV Despite Confessing to Being Non-Citizens

Multiple states have seen large numbers of illegal aliens added to their voter rolls by their respective statewide Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), even after the illegals confessed to not being citizens.

According to Just The News, this has largely been due to the lingering effects of the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) of 1993, also known as the “motor voter” program, where DMVs could register people to vote at the same time that they apply for a driver’s license.

Multiple investigations and public statements have revealed the extent of the problem, with illegals being improperly registered to vote in states such as Pennsylvania, California, Arizona, Texas, Ohio, and Illinois, among others.

1. Christian Adams, president of the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF), says that illegals have been registered to vote in the state of Pennsylvania for decades.

“Pennsylvania had been registering non-citizens, by admission – this wasn’t some conspiracy on the internet – and they admitted they had been registering non-citizens for 20 years at PennDOT, and it was a glitch, they called it,” said Adams. “So we use the National Voter Registration Act to go in to try to get the records of how bad the problem was, the records of how they fixed the problem, or allegedly fixed it, and they’ve been stonewalling us for about seven years.”

Back in 2017, Pennsylvania’s then-Secretary of State Al Schmidt (R-Penn.) admitted that there were over 100,000 cases where voter registration records were matched with the driver’s license numbers of immigrants who had not yet been naturalized.

PILF has also filed a lawsuit in California against the Alameda County Registrar of Voters, citing alleged violations of the NVRA due to the county failing to disclose the fact that illegals and other foreigners had been registered to vote, and casting votes, for over two decades.

“[W]e’ve collected over the years of the data on how non-citizens get in, and it’s largely by not telling the truth in the motor voter process,” Adams explained. “And it includes people here on green cards, people here legally.”

Other states have tried to combat the rise in the registering of illegal aliens. Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes (D-Ariz.) admitted on Tuesday that over 97,000 illegals were registered to vote in the crucial swing state. In Texas, Governor Greg Abbott (R-Texas) announced last month that the state has successfully removed over one million ineligible voters from the state’s voter rolls since 2021. Ohio Secretary of state Frank LaRose (R-Ohio) announced a directive ordering all 88 counties in the state to begin removing illegals from voter rolls.

Multiple states have since enacted laws forbidding illegals from voting, including Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Louisiana, North Dakota, and Ohio. Other states have proposed ballot measures banning illegals from voting, which will be decided upon by voters in November; these states include Iowa, Idaho, Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Wisconsin.
