Noncitizen voting is not a federal crime, a federal judge ruled last week, holding that the 1996 federal ban goes beyond what Congress may do. Days later the Justice Department charged 16 foreign nationals in four states with voting in American elections, and on December 8 the Supreme Court hears the Arizona case in which the left argues that states cannot keep noncitizens off their voter rolls either. If Congress cannot stop it and the states cannot stop it, who makes sure only American citizens decide American elections? Jenny Beth Martin spends the full hour with Cleta Mitchell, founder and chairman of the Election Integrity Network, 28 days before Election Day. They cover the ruling and the 2013 Supreme Court decision it contradicts, the Arizona case and the 90-day blackout on removing noncitizens, the new Medicare and Medicaid guidance on nursing home voting and the toolkit families can use to protect a parent's ballot, Secretary Pete Hegseth's registration day for the military and who is really using the overseas ballot system, the Supreme Court's block on the Postal Service rule, and the Census Bureau comment period on counting only citizens for apportionment. Cleta Mitchell founded and chairs the Election Integrity Network, which trains citizen volunteers nationwide and publishes the Model Election Laws Handbook legislators use to write election law.
