    DOJ identified 4 green card holders who voted in 2024 in NJ, or 0.00006% of total votes.

    As I wrote in 2024, noncitizen voting remains extraordinarily rare. Audits find only a tiny handful of cases, most often green card holders who got bad advice from others.

    "Multiple" sounds just slightly worse than "four"

    District courts are blocking Trump's attempts to screw with elections and to coerce states to give him private voter information

    The DOJ has lost parallel efforts to obtain this type of data in eight other federal district courts.

    tl;dr

    PR prison gangs used drugs to get prisoners to vote for the Republican candidate for Governor

    When Trump was inaugurated, prosecutors were told to stop investigating ties to political officials

    Puerto Rico’s representative in Congress and four other members of the House of Representatives have asked the Department of Justice’s Office of the Inspector General to investigate why a federal probe into a prison drugs-for-votes scheme was abandoned after the 2024 elections.


    “Credible allegations of election fraud uncovered through federal investigative work warrant serious scrutiny and transparent explanation,” the members of Congress wrote in the May 20 letter, adding that it was essential for “public confidence in democratic ins utions” that such claims are handled consistently, “regardless of the political actors involved.”


    The letter was signed by Resident Commissioner Pablo José Hernández Rivera, a Democrat and member of Puerto Rico’s Popular Democratic Party, as well as Reps. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., ranking member of the House Oversight Committee; Nydia Velázquez, D-N.Y.; Adriano Espaillat, D-N.Y., chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus; and Jesús “Chuy” García, D-Ill., a member of the House Judiciary Committee.


    Their request follows a ProPublica investigation that published earlier this month detailing how prosecutors had uncovered adrugs-for-votes scheme being run by a violent gang in Puerto Rican prisonsand were deep into looking at whether now-Gov. Jenniffer González-Colón or her campaign were involved. In the days following President Donald Trump’s election in 2024, as prosecutors prepared the indictment, they were told by supervisors in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Puerto Rico to exclude the voting-related charges against inmates and prison staff, four sources with knowledge of the investigation told ProPublica. Then, once Trump took office, they were told to abandon the probe into potential political ties entirely, the sources said.

    fake primary residence in Alabama, bona fide domicile in Florida

    State law requires Senate candidates to live in Alabama for only a day, but gubernatorial candidates must reside there for at least seven years, and Tuberville's voting record suggests he hasn't.



    "This is the Tommy Tuberville who stood on the Senate floor this year and demanded the country pass the SAVE Act, the bill to require proof of citizenship to register and a photo ID to vote, to stop people from voting where they’re not supposed to," Whitmire wrote. "In 2018, his vote did count — only in a state where he says his taxes show he no longer lived as a 'resident citizen.'"
    "The tax records show that Tuberville moved to the Auburn house that August," Whitmire wrote. "But Florida election records show he and his wife, Suzanne, voted in Florida that November, three months after the income taxes say he became an Alabama resident. That’s also after the homestead exemption."

    Voter fraud maven Jak Posobiec does the voter fraud

    Lives in Maryland, votes in Pennsylvania using his parents' address

    The 40-year-old Posobiec has voted in Pennsylvania elections from 2004 to 2024, both in person and by mail, according to a copy of his voting record viewed by Slate and the Handbasket. Until 2016, Posobiec used military and civilian overseas ballots. After resigning from his job as a Navy Reserve intelligence officer in 2017, he remained in Maryland while becoming a full-time influencer and political activist with groups such as Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA. He continued voting in Pennsylvania via absentee ballots and, later, in-person on-demand mail voting, using his parents’ home address in 2018, 2022, and 2024, according to an official copy of his voter information file from Montgomery County obtained through a right-to-know request.
    In a 2017 divorce complaint from his first wife, Posobiec listed a Maryland apartment as his address. Both he and his current wife, Tanya, have posted on their personal social media accounts photos of the suburban Maryland home they appear to have resided in since 2018. Tanya often calls the house “home”—at least five times, according to our review—and shows many milestones of family life there. She also lists her location as the District of Columbia on Facebook and enrolls in family crafts and lessons in the area, according to her social media posts. She registered to vote at their Maryland address on Election Day 2020. (Posobiec voted that year in person in Pennsylvania.)


    Perhaps most damningly, Posobiec listed a Maryland address—the same one he and his wife show in social media posts—more than a dozen times in his 2024 political contributions, according to Federal Election Commission filings.


    Some of those contributions (which, again, listed Maryland as his home address) were made on Oct. 27, 2024. Exactly two weeks earlier, Posobiec posted a photo on X featuring a Pennsylvania ballot and captioned: “SECURED THE BAG. Just stopped by the county voting board and did the deed—easy and even open on Sunday! Vote Early, Pennsylvania!” His voting record shows that he voted by hand-delivered mail-in ballot that day.

    more attempted rule by presidential decree

    also, clear violation of 18 USC §1701

    State election officials could soon face a stark choice: Hand over voter lists to the Trump administration or risk losing Postal Service delivery for mail-in ballots.


    That dilemma stems from newly proposed USPS rules that seek to comply with an executive order President Donald Trump signed this spring to crack down on mail-in voting. If courts let the order stand, it would give the federal government an unprecedented role in elections — and could put even more voter data in the hands of Trump officials searching for supposed election fraud.


    The proposed rules lay out new conditions that states would have to meet to send ballots through the mail, including giving the agency lists of all voters set to receive mail ballots.

    Trump keeps getting walloped by Trump judges

    DOJ now 0-9 in cases seeking to seize sensitive voter data from the states. This time, another Trump-appointed judge (this makes 5 out of the 9 appointed by the current president) ruled that DOJ has no authority under federal law to demand this data.

    A federal judge has blocked the Trump admin from implementing a new system she says is "actively" and "haphazardy" purging "non-citizens" from voter rolls using inaccurate data.

    Trump's voter suppression efforts keep losing in court

    "Ultra vires" refers to official actions that are beyond the legal authority of the officer

    A federal judge in Boston has declared key sections of Trump's executive order on mail voting unlawful and specifically blocked the administration from enforcing them as to the Democratic-led states + DC that sued

    The National Design Studio is a White house managed skunk works that among other things is attempting to replace Vote.gov

    Some of the NDS’s work is even more opaque, including an apparent redesign of the federal government’s voting registration hub.A sign-in page run by the studio on a White House-controlled web address carries the le “Log in to vote.gov preview”. Above the password field is a notice: “For official use only. Actions will be recorded in accordance with applicable law.”


    Vote.gov is a federal voter registration website. By law it belongs to the Election Assistance Commission (EAC), an independent, bipartisan body that Congress established in 2002 after the disputed 2000 election. Congress created the commission specifically so no sitting president would control the federal voter-registration system.

    The studio’s version has been live on White House systems since 17 September 2025, according to public records of secure web addresses.


    Late last year, the NDS began presenting its system to state election directors.


    The first such briefing, on 17 October, was on a call of the National Association of State Election Directors (NASED). Call notes summarising the meeting record members representing states of both parties expressing “serious concerns with this project not complying with state law” and noting that “the developers do not seem to want to spend the time to understand election official concerns”.

    Six days after the 17 October meeting, on 23 October, a National Design Studio engineer, Akash Bobba, reportedly briefed the system on a recorded conference call organised by the National Association of Secretaries of State. Under the studio’s design, voters would be required to verify their iden y through Login.gov, the federal sign-in gateway, and to have their citizenship checked against a database run by the Department of Homeland Security.

    Asked on the call what the federal government would retain of the personal information voters entered into the system, Bobba reportedly said that “clear data retention policies” would be given to states ahead of implementation, but conceded: “I don’t know what they retain and what they are logging.”

    The Election Assistance Commission has been part of the discussions. Its chair, Donald Palmer, reportedly said the commission was “facilitating discussion with state election officials on modernizing an accessible tool to provide a verifiable digital registration option”.

    The Guardian contacted the Election Assistance Commission for comment but received no response.

    The EPIC’s Davisson said: “With vote.gov, that’s the province of the Election Assistance Commission. But if you’re centralizing that in the White House, the White House is going to have sort of access to that backbone of data.

    He added: “Doing that outside of the appropriate channels, I think, is definitely going to – it’s dangerous and it’s going to erode trust.”

    The Help America Vote Act of 2002 put voter-registration administration under an independent bipartisan commission, structurally outside the reach of any sitting president. The studio’s version appears to collapse this arm’s-length arrangement.

    SCOTUS blesses Mississippi law accepting ballots received up to 5 days after Election Day. Nothing in federal law requires ballots to be received by Election Day. 5-4 decision.

    DOJ is now 0-11 in attempts to force states to give up voter information

    a district judge just issued the eleventh straight decision rejecting the Trump administration's demand for a state voter list.

    No court (including five Trump appointees) has sided with the administration on this so far.

    Cheaters cry fraud the loudest

    Austin used to run TPUSA's campaign arm



    A former Republican lawmaker who questioned the integrity of Arizona’s elections and served as a leader for the conservative group Turning Point Action was sentenced Tuesday to probation and a five-year ban on running for public office for using nominating pe ions that contained forged signatures in a bid to qualify for a 2024 primary election.

    Austin Smith, 30, pleaded guilty in mid-November to charges of attempted fraudulent schemes and practices, and illegal signing of election pe ions. He had acknowledged trying to use pe ions with forged signatures that he knew were false and forging a dead woman’s signature on a nominating pe ion.

    Smith represented an Arizona House district in the Phoenix suburbs for one term before dropping his reelection bid in April 2024 when questions arose about signatures on his nominating pe ions.

    Republicans are desperate to suppress voting, SCOTUS continues to roil elections during the election year -- RIP Purcell principle

    Under the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, election officials are supposed to finish any program for systematically removing ineligible voters 90 days before Election Day in federal races. That deadline applies to the 44 states covered by the NVRA, plus Washington, D.C.

    Congress passed this ban on late mass purges to make sure any eligible voters who mistakenly get caught up in a purge have enough time to resolve issues and cast their ballots.
    But as this fall's midterm election draws closer, some legal experts are questioning how courts will enforce what's known as the 90-day "quiet period" that's set to begin Aug. 5.

    Much of that uncertainty is the result of a brief, unexplained ruling the Supreme Court's conservative majority made before the 2024 election, allowing a Virginia program for removing suspected noncitizens to continue during that year's quiet period.

    still trying to overturn an election he lost 6 years ago

    Fed. judge quashes a DOJ subpoena seeking the personal information of 2020 poll workers and volunteers in Fulton County, Georgia.
    storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

    Trump appointed judge writes the opinion


    Statute of limitations passed

    So, is there anything wrong with the DOJ using the Grand Jury to subpoena these records from Fulton County? In this Court’s view, yes. These records, even if they lead to the DOJ finding individuals who worked for Fulton County in the 2020 Election who support the theory that the 2020 Election was not fair, would not lead to information that could be used to charge anyone with anything, at least not any viable charge.That is because the statute of limitations for any possible crime arising from the 2020 Election has long expired, as the DOJ must have brought such a case, if it could, no later than late 2025 or the early weeks of 2026.
    Congress certified

    Thus, an investigation of alleged Had the DOJ moved expeditiously to seek this information after the current President returned to office on January 20, 2024, and within the applicable period of limitations, this Court’s analysis may well have been different. Criminal conduct of anyone that may have led to the certification of the 2020 Election in Georgia would not be a legitimate use of the Grand Jury and its subpoena power, in that no valid indictment could issue from said Grand Jury due to the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations. The Congress of the United States met to count the certified votes of the Electoral College on January 6, 2021 (although the process was not completed until January 7, 2021, due to well-chronicled events).
