CNN: Experts Question Census Report Claiming Noncitizens Voted in 2020 Election
President Trump promotes a Census Bureau report on alleged noncitizen votes, though experts deem its methodology flawed and its findings insufficient to alter election outcomes.
- President Donald Trump used a Census Bureau report to claim over 24,000 noncitizens voted illegally in the 2020 election, with the analysis conducted by a group linked to him rather than career Census staff.
- Experts have criticized the report for serious flaws, including error-prone record matching and false positives, which undermine its conclusions about noncitizen voting.
- Even if the report's findings were accurate, the number of alleged noncitizen votes would not be sufficient to overturn any state results won by Joe Biden in the 2020 election.
- Critics warned that the report is used for political aims and that proposed laws based on it could wrongly disenfranchise millions of eligible voters.
