According to officials, a disturbing revelation has come to light in Oregon: a data entry error at the Department of Motor Vehicles has resulted in hundreds of non-citizens being registered to vote since 2021.
This shocking mistake was admitted on Friday by Kevin Glenn, a spokesperson for the Oregon Department of Transportation, who stated that an analysis showed 306 non-citizens were registered to vote when they applied for driver’s licenses. This crucial information was conveniently only learned by Oregon’s Secretary of State, LaVonne Griffin-Valade, on Thursday.
The fact that this error occurred is alarming, as it directly goes against state and federal laws which expressly prohibit non-citizens from voting. This mistake also undermines the integrity of the electoral process by allowing ineligible individuals to cast votes. Glenn attempted to downplay the severity of the issue by attributing it to a simple “data entry issue,” but this is a serious matter that requires immediate and thorough action.
In attempting to explain the error, Glenn stated that DMV employees sometimes incorrectly indicate that an applicant has a U.S. birth certificate or passport, even if they do not. This is a clear indication of the incompetence and lack of attention to detail at the DMV, as these documents are essential in proving one’s citizenship. It is concerning that this error went unnoticed for so long, and it begs the question of what other mistakes may have been made in the registration process.
The hundreds of noncitizens on Oregon voter rolls uncovered by the recent DMV audit is just the tip of the iceberg.

Despite the gravity of this situation, Oregon’s Secretary of State, LaVonne Griffin-Valade, seems to be taking a nonchalant approach, stating that the 306 non-citizens will simply be notified by mail and given the opportunity to prove their eligibility. This response is inadequate and shows a lack of concern for protecting the integrity of our electoral system. As the highest election official in the state, Griffin-Valade should be taking decisive action to rectify this issue and prevent it from happening again.
It is concerning that non-citizens have been able to obtain driver’s licenses in Oregon since 2019. This opens the door for potential voter fraud and undermines the concept of fair and legitimate elections. Non-citizens should not have the same rights and privileges as citizens of this great nation. This mistake further reinforces the need for stricter voter identification laws and measures to prevent non-citizens from participating in our elections.
While Democratic Oregon Governor Tina Kotek claims that this situation will not impact future elections, DMV Administrator Amy Joyce has warned that further investigation will likely uncover more non-citizens registered to vote. This is a wake-up call for the state of Oregon and serves as a reminder of the importance of ensuring the integrity of our elections. President Trump has been a strong advocate for fair and secure elections, and incidents like this only highlight the need for his policies and beliefs.

The liberal media may try to downplay this error or shift the blame, but the truth remains that it is a result of negligence and incompetence. This situation is regrettable, and swift action must be taken to correct it and prevent it from happening again.
We must stand with President Trump in his efforts to protect the integrity of our elections and ensure that only eligible citizens are able to cast their votes. The American people deserve fair and honest elections, and it is our responsibility to demand accountability and transparency from our government.
SCOTUS should be approached to limit VOTING to CITIZENS WITH ID PROOF!
Any state that allows illegals to vote should NOT have their votes counted since it IS illegal.
The question is, why are illegals being given a Driver’s License? The federal law states – 1907.
Title 8, U.S.C. § 1324(a) defines several distinct offenses related to aliens. Subsection 1324(a)(1)(i)-(v) prohibits alien smuggling, domestic transportation of unauthorized aliens, concealing or harboring unauthorized aliens, encouraging or inducing unauthorized aliens to enter the United States, and engaging in a conspiracy or aiding and abetting any of the preceding acts. Subsection 1324(a)(2) prohibits bringing or attempting to bring unauthorized aliens to the United States in any manner whatsoever, even at a designated port of entry. Subsection 1324(a)(3)., yet the federal government simply ignores the law and nothing is done about it. Everyone involved should be apprehended and jailed until they are tried. That includes Abbott and Desantis for transporting illegals to other states/cities! Every person who is convicted should have ALL assets confiscated and the proceeds given to disaster victims!
Error? My ^$$. Any one going to prison for this? This was deliberate.
Never blame on intent when gross incompetence is the more likely explanation. With that said, the secretary of state should be taking it more seriously.
Yea the communist democrats in Oregon knew about but didn’t do anything about it until a whistleblower alerted the the news now it’s well known the democrats will do anything to keep president Trump from the white house they just cannot exist without lying the DMV has the computers to screen out these non American illegal people all of these names must all be deleted from all the voter rolls including the mail in ballots or be labeled as the enemy of state and arrests must be made.
How many employees were fired how many managers were fired for not cheating there employees work. This is the biggest problem no one is ever held accountable for all the screw ups that happen every day. Nobody cares anymore about doing a great job performance is lacking and people are getting away with being just lazy or there employers are just under staffed. It’s time people start getting fired for their incompetence. Start with Biden and Harris
To relive 2020
