Yet another voting scandal has just come to light. 

Just the News reports that automatic voter registration appears to have allowed non-citizens to vote in the election in multiple states, including South Dakota and Oregon.

The outlet, here, uses at its source a new report that has been released by the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF).

The report was just recently released, and it can be found in its entirety here.

The details:

In its report, PILF states:

Automatic voter registration programs are adding foreigners to voter rolls new data show. Records obtained by the Public Interest Legal Foundation have revealed failures in Oregon and South Dakota to keep foreigners off voter rolls in the 2024 Election in these two states.

The group backs this up with hard data.

In Oregon, for example, they found "1,600 cases of noncitizen voter registration in the week of the 2024 Election." Similarly, in South Dakota, it found "more than 270 cases of foreign voter registration in the weeks before November 2024."

The group made it clear that it believes that "automatic voter registration systems" are to blame. Both states used this system, and both states had voter fraud as a result.

PILF President J. Christian Adams explained:

Automatic Voter Registration is a flawed policy that puts aliens on voter rolls. Policymakers should reject automatic voter registration. They cause chaos on the rolls and put immigrants in legal jeopardy.

Background

President Donald Trump and many others have long warned about problems like this in American elections.

It appears that there is a push, in many areas of the country, to sure up elections.

Just the News has separately reported:

As new terms and legislative sessions begin, Republican politicians from the local level to the White House are focusing on passing and implementing various election integrity efforts, from banning ranked-choice voting to ending “Bidenbucks.”

The outlet, before going into more detail about the measures that lawmakers are pursuing, goes on to write:

With a trifecta Republican government at the federal level, Republicans are prioritizing issues such as ensuring that only U.S. citizens vote in federal elections and that the private funding of U.S. elections is prohibited. Meanwhile, Republican-led state and local governments are focusing on banning the ranked-choice voting system and cleaning up voter rolls.

The bigger question, of course, is whether any of these ideas will actually become a reality. Time will tell, but we have already seen significant opposition on the issue from many Democrats.
