Federal law already allows only U.S. citizens to vote in elections for president and Congress. Yet Republicans are raising concerns about the potential for noncitizens voting in this year's elections.

You have a better chance of snapping a photo of Bigfoot than you have of a voter fraud incident in your jurisdiction, but it infuriates me that the myth of widespread voter fraud persists.

    Isn’t it already illegal to vote as a non-citizen?

      Yeah that’s the point. They know it’s already illegal, they put it on the ballot to drive turnout. Conservative voters are convinced that non citizens are voting in droves.
