The Challenge of Illegal Voting

There is a significant concern regarding illegal aliens being registered to vote in the United States. Many Americans are unaware that non-citizens can accidentally or deliberately find their way onto voter rolls, especially through mechanisms like obtaining driver's licenses. The process often involves simply checking a box declaring citizenship without adequate verification, leading to potential voter fraud. This situation poses a serious risk, particularly in states that rely heavily on mail-in ballots, where oversight may be lax.
