— Programming Error Allowed Non-US Citizens to Register to Vote in Ill.:
Secretary of State The office noted that while some of the people included in
the list weren’t citizens at the time of their application, they may be
citizens now (ILGOP Chairman Tim Schneider statement: “The recent reports of
non-citizens voting in Illinois is simply unacceptable. The Secretary of
State’s failure to competently administer the Automatic Voter Registration
(AVR) process in Illinois compromises the integrity of our entire election
system. Mistakes are made, but when it comes to voting, it simply is
inexcusable that non-citizens voted in Illinois and potentially affected the
outcome of elections across the state. Those in the Secretary of State’s Office
who allowed this to happen should be terminated from their employment with the
State. Public hearings in the General Assembly should commence immediately, and
the AVR program should be temporarily suspended until we get answers. Voting is
a right and a privilege reserved only for U.S. citizens. The American people
need to know that their government is upholding, not undermining, that right.”)

— Republicans — and one Democrat — demand answers from Jesse White on
non-citizen voter registrations “This is an absurd lack of compliance with
state law, surfacing less than three weeks from the opening of early voting for
our state’s 2020 general primary election,” the Republicans wrote. “Given this,
we are requesting an immediate hearing of the House Executive Committee.” –
