New Facts: Sherrill reveals 6,600 inaccurately registered voters in New Jersey
A software error in New Jersey’s Motor Vehicle System registered roughly 6,600 people who had indicated they were not U.S. citizens. The error lasted from June 2023 through June 2024. Fewer than 400 of those registrants voted.
The erroneous registrations spanned Democrats, Republicans, and unaffiliated voters. The state is removing everyone who should not be on the rolls. An independent investigation is underway, and the Motor Vehicle Commission is moving to replace the vendor that ran the faulty system.
There is no evidence that any election outcome was affected. Identities of the affected individuals will be shielded to avoid immigration consequences. The finding concerns about 6,600 registrations, not 35,152.
