GOP says 5,000 non-citizens voting in Colorado a 'wake-up call' for states - TheHill.comRepublicans on the House Administration Committee want to shore up voter registration rules in the wake of a Colorado study that found as many as 5,000 non-citizens in the state took part in last years election.
Rep. Gregg Harper (R-Miss.), the panels chairman, called the study a disturbing wake-up call that should cause every state to review its safeguards to prevent illegal voting.
We simply cannot have an electoral system that allows thousands of non-citizens to violate the law and vote in our elections. We must do more to protect the integrity of our electoral processes, Harper added.
