Trump Admin Charges More Pennsylvanians with Noncitizen Voting
The Justice Department said the four defendants voted or tried to vote in federal elections despite federal law barring noncitizens from casting ballots.
- On Thursday, Sept. 24, federal prosecutors charged four noncitizens with illegally voting or registering to vote in federal elections. U.S. Attorney David Metcalf of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania stated that illegal voters "will be prosecuted for corrupting our democracy."
- These charges arrive amid a nationwide crackdown by President Donald Trump's administration on alleged noncitizen voters, with critics arguing the investigations aim to diminish public confidence in election results before the midterm elections.
- The four defendants—Cliff Sanon, Dilea Ochoa-Perez, Sade Guppy, and Eduardo Gallardo Maldonado—were charged with voting in the 2022 and 2024 elections and face prison sentences and fines reaching up to $250,000.
- Acting Deputy Attorney General Trent McCotter reported the Justice Department has charged 70 people with voting fraud this year, marking the second time this month Pennsylvania residents faced noncitizen voting charges.
- Last week, the Department of Homeland Security offered a list of potential noncitizens to Secretary of the Commonwealth Al Schmidt, claiming thousands remain on state voter rolls, though Pennsylvania has not yet received the list.
