Trump Admin Charges More Pa. Residents with Noncitizen Voting
Federal prosecutors say the defendants knew they were not U.S. citizens, and the alleged votes would amount to 0.00009% of ballots cast.
- On Friday, the DOJ charged nine Pennsylvania residents with illegally voting in general elections, alleging each defendant cast ballots despite knowing they were not United States citizens.
- Homeland Security claimed in July that 14,576 potential noncitizens were registered to vote in Pennsylvania, though election officials emphasize that noncitizen voting remains exceedingly rare.
- Defendants include Artur Kopacz of Philadelphia and Inna Henry of Harrisburg, both accused of voting in multiple elections; if convicted, Kopacz faces up to two years in prison, while others face one year.
- United States Attorney for the Middle District of Pennsylvania Brian Miller stated, "Illegal voting is not a victimless crime but a serious affront to the principles of our democratic republic."
- Since September, 20 individuals have been charged with noncitizen-voting crimes in Pennsylvania, though a Votebeat and Spotlight PA analysis found only 176 allegedly fraudulent ballots among more than 67 million votes cast since 2015.
