6600 non citizens registered to vote in New Jersey

Monday, July 27, 2026

As early as October 2024, New Jersey lawmakers heard that some noncitizens were registering to vote through state Motor Vehicle Commission offices. The issue, county election officials said at a public hearing, appeared to be tied to the state "motor-voter" system, which can add residents to votor rolls when they do vehicle-related transactions. The commission offices' computer system asked in English whether users were U.S. citizens and eligible to cast ballots, and some people did not appear to speak or read the language well.

At an April 15 budget hearing, the topic of potential voter fraud came up, and Assemblyman Brian Rumpf (R-Ocean) suggested that New Jersey could improve upon matching signatures to verify a voter's identity.

Typical Republican response. Typical because it wouldn't fix the problem, but would introduce new problems, and disenfranchise legitimate voters.

Matching signatures would simply confirm the improperly registered voter is indeed the improperly registered voter. It wouldn't stop them from voting.

So, iow, a minor issue arose in a very complicated system and was resolved.

You're right we SHOULD appoint Piggy Dictator for Life. that is the only logical conclusion to draw.

It's a Democrat run state and Snoofy is trying to fault the GOP.

Republicans have always been afraid of voters; the People, which is why they under-fund education and healthcare, and overfund the billionaires and corporations that they serve instead.

Right now they are running scared, though, as at least 1 out of 5 of their own voters aren't going to support them this year.

Can you say, Blue Wave?

@#5 ... So, iow, a minor issue arose in a very complicated system and was resolved. ...

Not only was it resolved, the state was very transparent about the issue from the time the issue was discovered until it was resolved.

Oh I bet you do. I bet you think it's happening everywhere. It must be true. Right? People don't want to believe that someone would fabricate something so outrageous.

Especially Americans.

So..

Mission Accomplished

The State is doing an Independent Investigation now, but TrumpyBelle already knows that the infidel illegals are, "EATING ALL THE CATS!" in New Jersey.

How Cultish of him.

Just a bit of perspective, 6,000 out of 9.5 million is 0.06315789473684211% of the population.

"The State is doing an Independent Investigation now"

On 6,600? I'll take the under.

Usually, the result is more like this:
