THE PEW AND JUDICIAL WATCH ON VOTER INTEGRITY

A BRIEF REPORT

 

1. In 2012, the non-partisan Pew Charitable Trust found that "approximately 2.75 million people have active registrations in more than one state;" that "24 million - one of every eight - active voter registrations in the United States are no longer valid or are significantly inaccurate," and "more than 1.8 million deceased individuals are listed as active voters."

 

2. A case in point is in Virginia. While helping Virginia successfully defend its participation in a multi-state "crosscheck" of voter registrations, Judicial Watch learned that tens of thousands of Virginia registrants had subsequently registered in another state - and that about 17,000 Virginia registrants were registered in at least three states.

 

3. Judicial Watch has long suspected and exposed how illegal and legal aliens vote in U.S. elections. But in October 2014, political scientists at Old Dominion University published the most important and definitive study ever produced concerning noncitizen voting. Their research showed that about 25 percent of the U.S. noncitizen population was registered to vote in 2010 - including both legal and illegal aliens. The same study showed that 6.4 percent on non-citizens had illegally voted in 2008 and 2.2 percent had voted in 2010.

 

4. The implications of this study are staggering. There are perhaps 22 million noncitizens in the U.S. If the numbers in this study are even remotely accurate, it could mean that tens or even hundred of thousands of noncitizens vote in U.S. elections. In fact, the study substantiated that President Obama was elected with illegal votes.

 

5. It may be impossible to know how many other election outcomes have been altered by illegal, non-citizen voting. But, the evidence indicates that it doesn't take much to throw an election.

 

6. Ohio Secretary of State John Husted released a study in which he identified 20 local races - 14 elections and 6 ballot issues - that were decided in Ohio in 2014 by a single vote or by a tie-breaking procedure. This follows a previous study in which Ohio found that 43 local races (35 elections and 8 ballot issues) were decided in Ohio in 2013 by one vote or by tie-break....

 

A. Judicial Watch defends commonsense election reforms such as voter photo ID, restrictions on early voting, same-day registration, and out-of-precinct voting - and works against partisan lawsuits pursued in several states by those who seek to curtail electoral accountability. Unfortunately for the country, many of those disruptive, politically motivated lawsuits are coming from (Obama's) U.S. Department of Justice
