The Justice Department announced on October 12 that it has charged about 60 people in recent months for voting as non-citizens, part of a push by President Trump, who alleges widespread election fraud. The cases involve people from about 28 countries and are mostly misdemeanor voting-as-an-alien charges plus a felony for lying about citizenship. Election experts say the prosecutions show the crime is rare; critics warn of a chilling effect on the midterms. The count is now contested: John Solomon says more than 100 non-citizens have been charged and that New Jersey has a major criminal investigation into non-citizens on the rolls.
