Illegal voting charges against student prompt wider concerns about campus election integrity, civics education

Concerns about election integrity have arisen after a University of Michigan international student’s illegal voting at a campus polling site highlighted risks of same-day registration fraud and inadequate voter verification processes.

The College Fix recently obtained court records in the case of Haoxiang “Neil” Gao that suggest the international student was not well-educated about voting rights and spent less than 15 minutes registering and casting his ballot at the on-campus polling site, which was co-organized by two Democrat donors.

Just hours later, Gao told an election official he was “freaking out” when he realized he had voted illegally. He immediately contacted them in an attempt to take back his ballot – which cannot be done.

Al Sharpton has responded after President Donald Trump accused the civil rights grifter and several other celebrities of illegally taking large sums of cash in return for their endorsements of Kamala Harris’s failed 2024 presidential campaign.

It comes as Sharpton is once again at the center of controversy.

Trump is accusing Kamala Harris of paying Sharpton, along with celebrities like Oprah Winfrey and Beyoncé, for their endorsements in the 2024 election.

In a Monday appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Sharpton vehemently denied Trump’s claims that he received money for endorsing Harris.

Sharpton insists that the funds in question were given to his nonprofit, National Action Network (NAN).

He claims the money was for get-out-the-vote efforts, not for an endorsement.

“Absolutely not,” Sharpton said, addressing Trump’s accusation.

 

Judge Tosses Marc Elias’ Suit Against WY Proof Of Citizenship Law– thefederalist.com

Russia collusion hoaxer Marc Elias was dealt a major defeat on Tuesday when a federal judge tossed his group’s lawsuit challenging Wyoming’s proof of citizenship voting law.

In his 17-page decision, U.S. District Judge Scott Skavdahl, an Obama appointee, ruled that the Equality State Policy Center lacked Article III standing to challenge HB 156. Enacted earlier this year, the statute mandates that prospective Wyoming voters provide documentary proof of citizenship and residency when registering to vote in the state.

“Under Article III of the Constitution the exercise of judicial power is confined to Cases and Controversies, which requires Plaintiff to establish a personal stake in the outcome — standing,” Skavdahl wrote. “Even accepting Plaintiff’s standing-related allegations as true and construing the record in its favor, Plaintiff has not adequately demonstrated its standing to sue on its own behalf or on behalf of others in this action. Absent Plaintiff’s showing of standing, the Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction over this lawsuit, and consequently it must be dismissed without prejudice.”

“The Court has not considered nor makes any comment on the merits of Plaintiff’s claims,” he added.

Even Democrats in Nevada’s state legislature–a key battleground state–now favor voter ID, but with a catch.

The catch was the bill also expands ballot drop boxes, typically favored by Democrats, which Republicans view with skepticism.

The bill passed the Senate Monday with a 16-5 vote, and now heads to Republican Gov. Joe Lombardo, who has expressed support in the past for voter ID, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.

Lombardo vetoed a bill earlier in the session that expanded ballot drop boxes. Assembly Speaker Steve Yager, a Democrat, sponsored Assembly Bill 499 as a compromise.

Nevada is one of 14 states that do not require photo ID for in-person voting. Since 2021, multiple states passed election reforms expanded some form of ID requirement to mail-in voting.

Supreme Court Takes Up Case on Counting Votes After Election Day– gellerreport.com

One of the key instruments of the big steal is heading to the Supremes. The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a Republican lawmaker’s challenge to an Illinois state law requiring election authorities to count mail-in ballots received up to two weeks after Election Day.

Making it more difficult to “win in overtime.”

Politico: The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a Republican lawmaker’s challenge to an Illinois state law requiring election authorities to count mail-in ballots received up to two weeks after Election Day, as long as they are postmarked or certified by the voter as being cast by that date. The lawsuit brought by six-term Rep. Mike Bost is one of a series of cases President Donald Trump’s allies have filed seeking to exclude votes received after Election Day from official results (Politico).

Story continues below advertisement

Capitol News Illinois: The Supreme Court said its ruling will focus on whether Bost, of Murphysboro, in his role as a political candidate has legal grounds to sue over a state’s election law, rather than if Illinois’ mail-in voting law is legal, because the appeal challenges lower court rulings that Bost did not legal grounds to sue. A favorable ruling for Bost by the Supreme Court could force lower courts to issue a ruling about Illinois’ law…. Under Illinois law, ballots postmarked by Election Day can be counted as late as 14 days after the election as they arrive at local election offices. Bost’s case argues this violates the federal law establishing Election Day by allowing votes to arrive and be counted for two weeks after the polls close. (Capitol News).

The Wisconsin Elections Commission will no longer receive federal funding after violating the Help America Vote Act (HAVA), the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) Civil Rights Division announced Wednesday.

Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon said the group failed to follow laws outlined in HAVA, including providing voters with a complaint procedure to report violations, in a letter to the Wisconsin Election Commissioners.

“Quite surprisingly, we have learned that the Wisconsin Elections Commission has refused to provide any administrative complaint process or hearing regarding HAVA complaints against the Commission,” the letter reads. 

Until the Wisconsin Commissioners make reforms to comply with HAVA, the U.S. Election Assistance Commission will not provide funding.

The Supreme Court on Monday decided to hear an election case from Illinois, which promises to clarify the legal standards federal election candidates must meet to challenge state election laws in federal court, according to Judicial Watch.

The case is known as Bost v. Illinois State Board of Elections, where Representative Mike Bost (R-IL) and two other Republican presidential elector nominees filed a lawsuit against the Illinois State Board of Elections. The suit challenged a state law authorizing the acceptance of mail-in ballots up to two weeks after election day. A district court dismissed the case due to a lack of standing, and the ruling was upheld by the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals.

Standing has been a contentious issue since 2020. The plaintiff must meet three requirements to have standing in a federal lawsuit as established by the Supreme Court case Lujan v. Defenders of Wildlife (1992). They must show a concrete, particularized, and actual or imminent injury, there has to be a causal connection between the injury and the issue brought before the court, and it must be likely that the court’s ruling will redress the injury. The lower courts argued that because Rep. Bost had won the election, he failed to show a personal injury caused by the state election law.

In 7 States Have Paperwork Loopholes For Voter ID– thefederalist.com

Many states have adopted voter identification to bolster election security. But seven states which claim to check voter ID have loopholes, allowing residents to avoid the requirement by simply filling out paperwork.

In Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Iowa, Michigan, South Dakota, and Virginia, officials “request” voter ID, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. If someone lacks ID while voting in person, however, they must simply sign forms claiming to be the voter, and officials will let them cast a ballot.

In recent months, noncitizen voting has drawn increasing scrutiny nationwide. The Department of Justice is investigating numerous cases of noncitizen voting, as The Federalist previously reported. In Oregon — which has no ID requirement — officials found more than 1,700 noncitizens on the rolls and registered more than 54,000 of “unknown citizenship.” Hypothetically, in the seven states mentioned above, bad actors could falsely claim others’ identity to vote on their behalf.

Arizona will be combing its voter registration rolls with an eye to removing non-citizens, which could impact up to 50,000 people now eligible to vote in federal elections.

The state went for President Donald Trump in 2024 after narrowly backing former President Joe Biden in 2020 amid claims of voting irregularities.

After a lawsuit launched by America First Legal, the state has agreed that it will partner with the Department of Homeland Security to review voting rolls to verify that all residents on the rolls are American citizens, documents related to the suit said, according to Newsweek.

The lawsuit was filed last year.

The lawsuit was dismissed on Wednesday after a settlement was reached when the 15 counties being sued agreed “to ask DHS to begin responding to requests …  to verify the citizenship of each county’s federal-only voters.”

The North Carolina Supreme Court decided to allow about 60,000 ballots to count in a race for a seat on its own bench, despite those voters never having provided proper identification upon registering.

A unanimous court Friday decided that over 60,000 votes challenged by Republican candidate and appellate judge Jefferson Griffin should remain in the count for the vote total. In a 4-2 split, the court also decided that another roughly 5,500 overseas voters who did not provide identification would be allowed 30 days to fix their ballots, while another 267 voters who have never resided in North Carolina would have their votes removed.

NV Bill Would Permanently Obstruct Citizen Voter Roll Cleanup– thefederalist.com

If anyone isn’t sure whether Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar is thwarting efforts to clean up Nevada’s dirty voter rolls, his new bill, AB 534, removes all doubt.

There are two ways for citizens to challenge the eligibility of a voter who has moved from the residence where they are registered to vote — known as “Section 535” and “Section 547.”

Last year, our group, the Pigpen Project, filed thousands of challenges using both sections. In response, Aguilar’s office claimed challenges like ours lacked “personal knowledge” that the voter had moved.

If the post office’s National Change of Address (NCOA) database shows that a voter has permanently moved, Aguilar has declared that such information gleaned from this official government database doesn’t equate to “personal knowledge.” But “personal knowledge” is not defined in the Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS), only in the secretary of state’s implementing regulations. It’s only his opinion. Besides, Section 535 only requires challengers to attest “that he or she has personal knowledge of the facts set forth in the affidavit” (emphasis added).

Another win for election integrity is unfolding in Arizona, where state officials are partnering with DHS to verify voter rolls. Make no mistake about it —this is exactly the kind of action we need to protect our elections from fraud and abuse.

As many as 50,000 non-citizens are expected to be removed from Arizona’s voter rolls following a successful lawsuit by America First Legal (AFL) against all 15 Arizona counties.

“This settlement is a great result for all Arizonans,” (AFL) senior counsel James Rogers told Fox News Digital.

As a result of the lawsuit, the 15 counties have now begun working with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to verify the citizenship status of all registered voters in the state who failed to provide proof of citizenship.

While a 2013 Supreme Court ruling prohibits states from imposing voter registration requirements beyond the federal requirement that registrants must check a box affirming their U.S. citizenship, Arizona residents are still required to provide proof of citizenship to vote in state and local elections.

The Arizona law also requires that county recorders perform a monthly list maintenance to confirm the U.S. citizenship of so-called “federal-only voters,” a list of nearly 50,000 individuals who failed to provide proof of U.S. citizenship and were not allowed to vote in state or local elections.
