New National Poll: 82% of Americans Say Only U.S. Citizens Should Vote in Federal Elections

Poll after poll, month after month, the message from the American people keeps getting louder — and the U.S. Senate keeps ignoring it.

The latest McLaughlin & Associates survey, conducted July 15–21, 2026, among 1,000 general election voters, shows that election integrity has become one of the most unifying issues in American politics. Voters don't just want citizens-only elections in theory — they want the specific, concrete safeguards the SAVE America Act provides. Seventy-eight percent say proof of citizenship should be required to register to vote. Seventy-eight percent say show a photo ID at the polls. Eighty-two percent say only U.S. citizens should be casting ballots for President, Senate, and House.

These aren't Republican numbers — they're American numbers, with majorities of Democrats, Independents, and even Harris voters agreeing. The left's "voter suppression" talking points have collapsed under the weight of the evidence. The only question now is whether Republican Senators are listening — or whether they're going to keep letting the radical left run out the clock before November.
