Washington State AG Nick Brown: ‘I Won’t Say Non-Citizen Voting Never Happens, but It’s Extremely Rare’

‘Repeated studies have shown only a minuscule number of cases of non-citizens voting in an election’

EXCERPT:

BROWN: “At the national level, repeated studies have shown only a minuscule number of cases of non-citizens voting in an election. Tens of millions of votes are cast every year, hundreds of millions every two years. And yet, with some of the most powerful people in the world, including the president, encouraging people to look for fraud, on average, there’s only three cases a year of non-citizens voting. Just for comparison, every year, there are dozens of people who are killed by lightning strikes in America. Nearly 10 times as many lightning strike deaths as non-citizens voting in an election. I won’t say non-citizen voting never happens, but it’s extremely rare. We have federal election officials, state and local election officials, people in law enforcement looking for these cases. And when they happen, they should have severe consequences, but it’s extremely rare.”
