New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill says a software error in the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles led to thousands of noncitizens being registered on voter rolls. Sherrill announced that, between June 2023 and June 2024, the DMV system mistakenly registered about 6,600 people who identified themselves as noncitizens as voters. She said the state later reviewed the impact and found that fewer than 400 of those erroneously registered individuals cast ballots in elections during that period. Multiple outlets report that Sherrill said there is no evidence that the error changed the outcome of any election. The reports characterize the issue as originating from the DMV’s voter registration process and note that the state is purging or correcting the affected registrations. Coverage also aligns on the approximate figures: roughly 6,600 noncitizens registered, and nearly 400 voting. The announcements come as the governor provides details from the state’s preliminary analysis and ongoing review of the voter-roll discrepancies.
