Analyzing Claims about Noncitizen Registration or Voting
Announcing CEIR’s new interactive tracker
By Kyle Yoder, Carly Colen, and Iris Ong
Center for Election Innovation & Research (CEIR)
Much attention has been paid to sweeping claims about possible noncitizens registering to vote or even casting ballots in US elections. After years of intense scrutiny by local, state, and even federal officials, all available evidence strongly suggests that this number in any state is extremely small. Election officials—in every state and regardless of party—act swiftly to investigate and address these claims whenever they arise, and large claims shrink under this scrutiny. Yet the claims continue, appearing to arise from misunderstandings, mischaracterizations, or outright fabrications about voter data.
The Center for Election Innovation & Research (CEIR) has released a comprehensive, interactive tracker of claims about noncitizen registration or voting. For the first time, voters, policymakers, and the public can see details and analysis of all these claims, grounding discussions in facts.
