DHS Adjusts Noncitizen Voter Roll Figures

Why it matters locally: While the initial figures presented by the Department of Homeland Security did not specify Indiana, the ongoing review and adjustment of noncitizen voter roll data could still influence state-level election integrity discussions and voter registration practices within Indiana.

Washington, D.C. — The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has informed states that initial numbers concerning noncitizens identified on voter rolls were preliminary. The Trump administration had earlier announced findings of 250,000 noncitizens on voter lists across four specific states. Subsequent communications from the agency to state officials indicated that the data initially presented represented a preliminary assessment.
