A public interest law firm has discovered thousands of noncitizens were quietly removed from Virginia voter rolls and that a number of the removed individuals had been voting since the 1980s. The Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF), an Indiana-based group that litigates to protect election integrity, released a report detailing their findings on Virginia's voter rolls. The group filed numerous lawsuits and submitted a number of record requests in order to gather the information after the state had initially stonewalled their efforts. The extensive review of voter history files across Virginia's 133 jurisdictions found that state election officials removed 5,556 noncitizen voters between 2011 and May 2017. Of the 5,556 noncitizens that were quietly removed from the rolls, 1,852 cast ballots. PILF said that a total of 7,474 illegal ballots were cast by the noncitizens, with records of illegal voting dating as far back as the 1980s. "Virginia's voter registration system is so flawed, noncitizens have been found voting since the 1980s and weren't caught until recently--by happenstance," Logan Churchwell, PILF's spokesman, told the Washington Free Beacon. "It's 2017--using the honor system to determine eligibility is only defended by those without a sense of outrage toward voter fraud." Read More |
