Democratic New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill said Tuesday that over 6,000 non-citizens were mistakenly added to her state’s voter rolls due to a “serious software error.”
Sherrill said in a statement that last week, she discovered a software error in the state’s Motor Vehicles Commission (MVC) had “led to the registration of roughly 6,600 people who indicated that they were not U.S. citizens between June 2023 and June 2024, almost three years prior to my taking office.” She added that the individuals had “answered ‘no’ when asked on a keypad whether they were a U.S. citizen when applying for drivers’ licenses and identification cards, but through no fault of their own, the system registered them anyway.”
