Pennsylvania Responds to Homeland Security's Non-Citizen Voter Claims
Pennsylvania says DHS offered no evidence for its claim and asks for methodology and data sources after counties canceled 338,295 registrations in 2025.
- Pennsylvania Secretary of State Al Schmidt disputed Department of Homeland Security claims that 14,576 noncitizens are registered to vote in the commonwealth, demanding the federal government provide its methodology and data sources.
- DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin sent letters to officials in Pennsylvania, California, Nevada, and New Jersey earlier this month, alleging more than 250,000 noncitizens are on voter rolls combined.
- Responding on Wednesday, Schmidt noted that Pennsylvania counties removed 338,295 registrations in 2025 and emphasized the state "follows all state and federal laws" to maintain accurate voter rolls.
- Election officials including California Secretary of State Shirley Weber and Nevada Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar questioned how DHS reached its conclusions, with Aguilar stating "I don't believe the federal government is being honest."
- New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill reported a software error led to around 6,600 noncitizens being registered, though only 400 cast ballots—far fewer than DHS's 35,152 estimate, and experts note DHS often misidentifies U.S. citizens.
