New Jersey Voter Roll Fix Under Scrutiny | Portland Maine News
Description
New Jersey’s voter registration system hit a glitch: 6,600 noncitizens were mistakenly registered to vote, mostly due to a motor vehicle department software error. Fewer than 400 actually voted, and the issue spans all political affiliations. Governor Mikie Sherrill blames the glitch and pushes back against former President Trump’s use of the story for political gain, calling his claims about widespread voter fraud baseless. The U.S. Attorney’s office is investigating, calling it an unlawful dilution of votes, while the White House uses the incident to push for stricter voter ID laws. The episode highlights a messy, politically charged moment in election integrity debates.
