The Republican National Committee and the New Jersey GOP went looking through voter-roll records in one of America’s bluest states.
What surfaced should make every legal voter pay attention.
Fox News reported Monday that documents obtained through public-records requests showed noncitizens on New Jersey voter rolls for years, including some cases where voting histories also appeared.
The NJGOP and RNC requested voter rolls from all 21 New Jersey counties, according to the report.
The records reportedly showed multiple noncitizens seeking naturalization asking to be removed from the rolls, saying they had been unknowingly registered to vote.
Most of those noncitizens were registered as Democrats, Fox reported.
Fox News laid out the core findings in its June 8 report:
EXCLUSIVE — Noncitizens in a key blue state were on the voter rolls for years — and some even voted in prior elections, according to documents obtained via public records request.
The New Jersey Republican Party (NJGOP) and the Republican National Committee (RNC) requested voter rolls from all 21 counties in the Garden State and found multiple instances of noncitizens seeking naturalization asking to be removed from the rolls, claiming they were unknowingly registered to vote. Most were registered as Democrats.
Noncitizens cannot vote in state or federal elections, and the candidates for citizenship worried that being on the rolls would disqualify them.
In official letters viewed by Fox News Digital from Atlantic County, Superintendent of Elections & Commissioner of Registration Maureen Bugdon certified that noncitizens came to her asking to be removed.
Most of the letters confirmed that the noncitizens did not have a voting record, but not all.
One noncitizen, who the county said was removed from the rolls in 2015, voted several times in 2000 and 2001, and in the 2008 general election. Another voted in a primary election in 2005 and a municipal election in 2000.
That is the part Democrats never want to talk about.
The argument from the left is usually that noncitizen voting is a fake issue. Yet here, according to the report, the records came from people identifying the problem themselves.
They were trying to clean up their own status before pursuing citizenship.
Fox also reported that it reviewed more than 50 Atlantic County documents from noncitizens who attested that they had been registered unknowingly.
RNC Chairman Joe Gruters told Fox the group found hundreds of noncitizen registrants in New Jersey, and he said those self-reported cases may only be the beginning.
Fox News quoted Gruters describing why the records matter:
RNC Chairman Joe Gruters says the group found hundreds of noncitizen registrants in New Jersey who are likely only the tip of the iceberg, but that New Jersey and other Democrat-run states are unwilling to disclose information about their voter registration list maintenance processes. The organization has requested that information from 48 states.
“I mean, it’s really incredible because here the Democrats are saying that, you know, noncitizens never vote, [that], this is a non-issue, but every county we’re finding people that are self-reporting now, and I’m glad we’re doing these records request because it’s really eye-opening, because this is just the people that have self-reported,” Gruters told Fox News Digital.
“You want a democracy that’s secure and elections that are free and safe and that people can depend upon, and people have full confidence in,” he said.
“We have staffers already in 17 states working on these issues to make sure that, like I said, it goes back to having a safe and secure election that’s free and fair,” he said.
The legal requirement in New Jersey is plain.
The New Jersey Division of Elections makes citizenship the first listed requirement for voter registration:
Voter Registration Requirements
To register in New Jersey, you must be:
A United States citizen
At least 17 years old but cannot vote until reaching the age of 18, except that you may vote in a primary election if you are 17 and will be 18 at the time of the following general election.
A resident of the county for 30 days before the election
A person not serving a sentence of incarceration as the result of a conviction of any indictable offense under the laws of this or another state or of the United States.
The registrant must complete a Voter Registration Application and/or Party Affiliation Form. Mail or deliver the Voter Registration Application and/or Party Affiliation Form to the County Commissioner of Registration or Superintendent of Elections for your county.
You are not eligible to register to vote if:
You are serving a sentence of Incarceration as a result of a conviction of an indictable offense under the laws of this or another state or of the United States.
Citizenship is first on the list for a reason.
And New Jersey already had a separate federal enforcement story in this same lane just weeks ago.
On May 1, the Justice Department announced charges against four resident aliens in New Jersey in connection with alleged illegal voting in federal elections and alleged false statements during the citizenship process.
The Justice Department announced the New Jersey cases this way:
NEWARK, N.J. – Four resident aliens in New Jersey were charged in separate criminal complaints in connection with illegally voting in federal elections and making false statements while applying for United States citizenship, U.S. Attorney Robert Frazer announced today.
According to the separate criminal complaints filed against them, David Neewilly, 73, of Atlantic County; Jacenth Beadle Exum, 70, of Bergen County; Idan Choresh, 43, of Monmouth County; and Abhinandan Vig, 33, of Monmouth County, were non-citizens when they registered to vote in New Jersey. On their respective voter registration forms, however, they falsely certified and attested that they were United States citizens.
The charges and allegations contained in the complaints are merely accusations, and the defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
Those are allegations, and the defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
The timing still adds weight to the question Republicans are asking: how many weak points are sitting inside blue-state voter-roll systems?
Gruters also tied the New Jersey findings to the broader fight over how elections get counted, including the late-count controversy in Los Angeles that knocked Spencer Pratt out of contention.
That is the larger backdrop here.
Republicans are demanding proof, transparency, and list maintenance. Democrat-run states keep acting like the public has no right to see what is really inside the system.
The RNC says it has requested voter-roll maintenance information from 48 states.
After New Jersey, it is going to be much harder for Democrats to keep saying there is nothing to find.

I believe if all the legal citizen democrat voters only were counted, the dems could be beaten by the USTAXPAYERS party.
Many showed their listed address as “Hudson River”...
The laws are in place to stop this. They’re just not being enforced. The democrats are great for making laws to give themselves unfair advantages, then they scream about “fairness”, the hypocrites.

Thank GOD we no longer have to look at these DEMONIC FREAKS.
SORRY, WRONG THREAD !!!!
Republican submission to this tyrrany started when Nixon refused to challenge the Kennedy - Daly graveyard vote that turned the 1960 election; “for the good of the country.”
I’d already thrown up.
I’d already thrown up.
Even the tombstones or dem dead n Hudson county New Jersey.
If they can do this, why cannot the DOJ?
VPVance need to walk into the Senate and take over the chair.
“Most ... did not have a voting record, but not all.”
In my experience with non-citizens, only rarely does a non-citizen vote. MotorVoter registers non-citizens to vote when they get a drivers license, just as it registers minors 16-17 to vote when they get a license or permit.
In my experience Vote Harvesters (previously called patronage precinct workers) vote on behalf of the dead, non-citizens, minors, movers, vacant houses, vacant lots. These vote harvesters do not discriminate against anyone who gets their service.
The source of the problem is that Democrats have a ground game. MAGA and Republicans do not have ground game (with rare exceptions). The best way to prevent vote fraud is a good ground game... humans who knock door to door and come to personally know the voters. The best way to prove vote fraud after the fact is to have a good ground game where the door knockers know the voters.
Without proof that is admissible in court and will send vote harvesters to jail, vote fraud will continue. Allegations are just noise.
good question..................
IF THEY GOT A DRIVER’S LICENSE-—THE LOCAL DMV REGISTERED THEM.....
Some weren’t even old enough to vote!.....................
bttt
