6,600 noncitizens registered to vote after error in New Jersey motor vehicle system, governor says

Governor Mikie Sherrill reported that 6,600 noncitizens were improperly registered to vote in New Jersey due to a Motor Vehicle Commission system error in 2023-2024. Fewer than 400 of these individuals cast ballots, and Sherrill ordered the removal of erroneous registrations while investigating the error. The issue arises amid claims by President Donald Trump and Republicans about noncitizen voting, which the article notes is rare and punishable by law.
