In response to an influx of immigrants at the U.S.-Mexico border, Republicans are intensifying efforts to prevent noncitizens from voting, despite evidence showing that such voting is rare. Measures taken include voter roll reviews, constitutional amendments, and executive orders across several states. Critics, primarily from the Democratic Party, argue these initiatives create unnecessary barriers for legal voters and perpetuate misconceptions about noncitizen voting. A 1996 U.S. law already prohibits noncitizen voting, and many states have laws reinforcing this. Meanwhile, there have been allegations against the Pennsylvania Democratic Party for potentially recruiting out-of-state poll watchers, which could violate state election laws. The ongoing narrative surrounding noncitizen voting continues to influence voter registration processes and electoral integrity discussions.
