Texas: Six Green Card Holders Charged in Federal Illegal Voting Crackdown
Key Takeaways
- Federal prosecutors in the Northern District of Texas charged six lawful permanent residents and one undocumented immigrant with voting in federal elections over eight years.
- The announcement by US attorney Ryan Raybould followed Attorney General Todd Blanche's White House tease of a "big development" in the crackdown on non-citizen voting.
- Six of the charged individuals voted in the 2024 general election, but two cast provisional ballots that were not counted.
- Only four ballots were apparently counted in error, three from green card holders from Nigeria, India and Mexico and one from an undocumented immigrant from Mexico.
