Arizona Supreme Court: 98,000 Potential Non-Citizens Can Vote In Elections

The Arizona Supreme Court has ruled that almost 98,000 potential noncitizens are allowed to vote in state and local races.
The ruling came “after officials uncovered a database error that, for two decades, mistakenly gave the voters access to the full ballot.”

The report also said those people were already able to vote in federal races, regardless of the court’s decision.
In Federal elections you don’t have to prove you’re a citizen, you simply have to check the box saying that you are a citizen.
The lawsuit was filed after the Maricopa County recorder’s office discovered the 20-year-old coding error for voters who got their license before 1996, when Arizona started accepting driver’s licenses as proof of citizenship but didn’t renew it or move until after 2004, when the state started requiring proof of citizenship to vote.
