Election Integrity Expert Says States Need to Stop Non-Citizens Voting: ‘America Doesn’t Know the Extent of the Problem’
An election integrity expert told The Tennessee Star that states need to start taking steps to prevent non-citizens from voting in their elections. “I think states need to make it clear in their constitutions that you have to be a citizen to vote in all elections in the state to prevent local school boards, local town councils, and others from legalizing alien voting,” said Hans von Spakovsky, manager of the Election Law Reform Initiative.

August came early to the nation’s capital with last week’s round of March inflation data. The late summer weather in Washington, D.C., is notoriously hot and sticky, two accurate descriptors of the latest price increases facing families and businesses alike.
