Democrats have spent years insisting that we don’t need something like the SAVE Act to clean up voter rolls. Their go-to line? “It’s already illegal for noncitizens to vote.” But that’s just political cover because they’ve also been insisting…insisting, mind you…that illegals don’t vote in our elections.
Uh-huh. Except that thing they keep telling us “never happens” happened again:

Noted the Department of Homeland Security: “All Americans should support President Trump and Secretary Noem’s efforts to ensure that only Americans vote in American elections. DHS has revamped the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) database to ensure government officials can swiftly verify statuses, stopping entitlements and voter fraud.”
Fox News has more:
A Texas election review has identified thousands of illegal immigrants on the state’s voter rolls, Texas Secretary of State Jane Nelson said Monday.
Nelson said a cross-check of state voter records found that more than 2,700 possible illegal immigrants were registered on the voter rolls, leading to an eligibility review across the 254 counties.
The data came from a full comparison of Texas’s 18 million registered voters against federal citizenship records in the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services’ SAVE database, according to the secretary of state’s office.
“Only eligible United States citizens may participate in our elections,” Nelson said. “The Trump Administration’s decision to give states free and direct access to this data set for the first time has been a game changer, and we appreciate the partnership with the federal government to verify the citizenship of those on our voter rolls and maintain accurate voter lists.”
Earlier this month, we learned that an illegal immigrant hired as superintendent of Des?Moines Public Schools (DMPS) was also illegally registered to vote in Maryland. Two weeks ago, it was reported that Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul is appealing a court ruling that would force removal of illegal immigrants from the state’s voter rolls.
And of course, the Left’s arguments following such revelations always follow the same pattern:
1. That thing isn’t happening.
2. Okay, it’s happening, but it’s not that frequent.
3. It’s happening, it’s a good thing, and you’re a bigot for noticing and complaining.
It doesn’t matter if it’s 15 or 1500 or 15,000 – any illegal alien vote undermines our system, as some X users correctly noted:

Those who claim they are the biggest “defenders of democracy” should welcome the cleansing of voter registration rolls, but they don’t (hint: because they’re Democrats and that’s how they maintain power).

Now, how many states controlled primarily by Democrats have illegal aliens on their voter rolls in violation of federal law? You know, the ones where they say “that doesn’t happen”?
