New Jersey's governor says about 6,600 people who indicated they were noncitizens were nonetheless registered to vote in the state because of a Motor Vehicle Commission system error. Democratic Gov. Mikie Sherrill announced the problem Tuesday. Sherrill says that from June 2023 to June 2024, before she was in office, people who indicated they were not U.S. citizens on a voter registration keypad were registered to vote anyway. Sherrill says fewer than 400 of those people ended up casting ballots. The revelation comes as President Donald Trump and other Republicans continue to claim that voting by noncitizens is rampant in U.S. elections, even though the problem is rare.
