Donald Trump Claims Voting by Noncitizens is Rampant in America, But The Numbers Tell a Different Story

A data analysis has revealed that noncitizen voting is relatively rare, contradicting claims by Trump that it is a widespread Democratic plot to influence elections. The finding comes as a federal crackdown has ensnared hundreds of people, many of whom never cast a ballot. According to election officials, the issue is being addressed with excessive force. "We aren't finding what they think is out there," said Jose Luis Castillo, election administrator for Webb County, Texas. Pam Anderson, a former Colorado election official, added that the administration is "using a sledgehammer to address the issue." Many of those affected claim they were unaware they were doing anything wrong, with one individual stating, "I wasn’t sneaking in. I believe I was doing it by the law."
