Arizona Officials Find Nearly 100,000 Voters Didn’t Provide Proof of Citizenship


Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes says that the voters should be allowed to vote in November despite the lack of citizenship proof.
That does not mean they were not citizens.

Often it means that their Drivers licenses did not have the same name on them as there voter registration cards. Joe Blow's license was issued to Joseph R. Blow. Juan Carlos Sánchez Gómez was listed as J.C. Gomez, Juan C. Sánchez or Juan Sanchez. Missy Jones was listed as Taquanda Jones and so on.
 
Your headline isn't proven by the story
God you are stupid
Here is another record dealing with the same issue. Notice how democrats craftily word statements that acknowledge the fact of noncitizen voting while trying to give the false impression that they firmly oppose illegal voting and are sure of the accuracy of their false claims that illegal voting has never been a problem under their jurisdiction.


Arizona officials race to fix ‘clerical error’ for voters who haven’t proved citizenship​


Election officials in Arizona are racing to correct a clerical error that could shut out nearly 100,000 voters from casting ballots in state and local races.

Officials say a glitch mistakenly marked that these voters had provided documentation proving their citizenship – which is required to vote in state and local races in Arizona – when there’s no record that they had.

Such documentation isn’t required to cast ballots for federal office in Arizona, so the glitch would not affect anyone’s ability to vote in the 2024 presidential election. But it could affect state legislative races and Arizona’s ballot referendum on abortion rights.

Former President Donald Trump and his Republican allies have raised baseless concerns claiming that massive numbers of noncitizens have voted in US elections. Nonpartisan experts say illegal voting by noncitizens is extremely rare and is quickly caught.

Officials have described the Arizona situation as a “clerical error” and a “coding glitch” that isn’t part of any organized scheme to undermine the integrity of the 2024 election.

“At the end of the day, it was a clerical error that we want to get resolved for the voters,” said Taylor Kinnerup, a spokeswoman for the Maricopa County Recorder’s office, which helps run elections in the Phoenix area and discovered the problem earlier this month. ...

Officials said the 97,000 voters affected by the error got their driver’s license before 1996, which is the year Arizona started requiring residents to prove their citizenship to obtain a license. At some point later, these people were miscategorized in the voter rolls as having already proved their citizenship – even though there is no record of that happening.

The office filed a “friendly lawsuit” on Tuesday, asking the Arizona Supreme Court to decide if they should provide these 97,000 voters with the full 2024 ballot or the special “federal-only” ballot that Arizona uses for residents who haven’t fulfilled the stricter citizenship requirements. (Those voters can only vote in federal – not state – elections.)

“These people have attested, under penalty of law, that they are citizens, so we have no reason to believe they aren’t eligible,” Kinnerup said. “But according to the letter of the law, as we interpret it currently, they have not provided full proof of citizenship. That’s why we’re going to court. We want to ensure that we’re interpreting the law correctly.” ...

Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes, a Democrat, said in a press release that the flaw affected “longtime Arizonans” who were “mostly Republicans.” His office is pushing for these 97,000 voters to get full ballots – so they can still vote in both federal and state races this year – while Richer wants these voters to receive the “federal-only” ballots. ...

Fontes and other secretaries of state were on Capitol Hill last week to testify about their efforts to secure the 2024 election. While Republicans used the hearing to raise fears about noncitizens undermining the results, Fontes said that in his experience, efforts to crack down usually backfire and end up removing more eligible voters from the rolls.

“I take no pride in the idea that we have denied eligible citizens the right to vote, in far greater numbers than we would have prevented the vanishingly rare noncitizen voting that is alleged to be happening across the United States of America,” Fontes said last week.

Notice the facts that democrats appear to be downplaying while the reporter details the facts:

1. Election officials in Arizona are racing to correct a clerical error that could shut out nearly 100,000 voters from casting ballots in state and local races. What clerical error? The error made by officials who did not verify the citizenship of 100,000 voters before registering them to vote. What are democrats alarmed about? That reviewing the unverified voter eligibility of those suspected of illegally registering to vote may result in many of them losing their voting priveleges due to lack of citizenship.

2. Officials say a glitch mistakenly marked that these voters had provided documentation proving their citizenship – which is required to vote in state and local races in Arizona – when there’s no record that they had.

Such documentation isn’t required to cast ballots for federal office in Arizona, so the glitch would not affect anyone’s ability to vote in the 2024 presidential election. But it could affect state legislative races and Arizona’s ballot referendum on abortion rights.


Officials admit the 'error' they made was claiming the voters in question had proven their claims of citizenship when that had not happened. Notice also that AZ democrats have changed election rules to allow non-citizens to vote contrary to long-standing American election laws.

3. Nonpartisan experts say illegal voting by noncitizens is extremely rare and is quickly caught.

Officials have described the Arizona situation as a “clerical error” and a “coding glitch” that isn’t part of any organized scheme to undermine the integrity of the 2024 election.


Democrats repeatedly claim, but cannot prove, that voting fraud is rare and almost always results in the voting crook getting caught.

4.
“These people have attested, under penalty of law, that they are citizens, so we have no reason to believe they aren’t eligible,” Kinnerup said.


That is the foundational claim of voting crooks and democrats protecting the voting fraud: Voters and voting officials claim there is nothing illegal or corrupt that they are doing and we choose to take them at their word without bothering to look into the relevent issues any deeper. Leftist rags claim Americans who refuse to blindly take these people at their word are seditionist opponents of democracy.


5. “But according to the letter of the law, as we interpret it currently, they have not provided full proof of citizenship. That’s why we’re going to court. We want to ensure that we’re interpreting the law correctly.” ...

Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes, a Democrat, said in a press release that the flaw affected “longtime Arizonans” who were “mostly Republicans.” His office is pushing for these 97,000 voters to get full ballots – so they can still vote in both federal and state races this year – while Richer wants these voters to receive the “federal-only” ballots. ...


What is the problem that has the democrats up in arms? Republicans want the state to go back and verify the citizenship status of these tens of thousands of voters who likely voted in many elections, including the 2020 election, or remove their names from voting rolls.
