S1 Ep923: DOJ flags 400+ illegal voters (10.27.26)

What it claims

Claims

1. 1MixedThe Department of Justice identified at least 400 non-citizens voting in Washington state elections.The DOJ did announce that it identified about 405 people (more than 400) it says are non-citizens who registered and voted in Washington, as of 2026-10-27. However, Secretary of State Steve Hobbs called the federal list unreliable and said a preliminary review found it included U.S. citizens, so the claim that these 400+ people were in fact non-citizens voting is disputed.8 sources →

2. 2TrueThe Seattle mayor's office provided false information regarding the response to a shooting.The sources show the mayor's office did issue inaccurate information after the Bite of Seattle shooting: its initial statement said two people were in custody, which Wilson later corrected to one. Whether anyone lied on purpose, as the post's 'caught red-handed in lie' framing implies, is not established, and the dispute over the delayed police briefing remains contested.5 sources →
3. 3HyperboleThe Seattle mayor's office provided false information regarding the response to a shooting, described as caught red-handed in a lie.Deliberate exaggeration. Read literally it is not a factual claim.
4. 4TrueMicrosoft is offering buyouts to 27% of its global workforce.AP (tier1) reports Microsoft offered 60,000 employees, about 27% of its global workforce, voluntary buyouts on 2026-10-26, and Reuters and CBS confirm the roughly 60,000 / quarter-of-workforce figure. The offer was limited to eligible employees (VP level and below, in Canada, India, the UK and the US), a scope detail that does not contradict the claim.5 sources →

5. 5Can’t tellActing US Attorney Neil Floyd stated that over 400 non-citizens have voted in Washington and that they have identified over 1,500 ballots illegally cast.Multiple tier1 sources confirm Floyd made this statement at the October 26 press conference, and the claim matches the passage. The 400+ voters and 1,500 ballots are DOJ allegations that the sources do not independently verify, and no source affirmatively refutes those specific figures, so the substance is unverifiable.7 sources →

   ▶ 2:29

6. 6Can’t tellThe Department of Justice received approximately 800 leads from the Department of Homeland Security regarding potential non-citizen voting.The claim faithfully paraphrases Neil Floyd's statement that DOJ got about 800 leads from DHS, so it is graded as made. The sources confirm DOJ received a DHS list and identified about 405 alleged noncitizen voters, but none states a figure of about 800 leads, so the number is neither confirmed nor contradicted.3 sources →

   ▶ 5:52

7. 7TrueSome individuals on the DOJ's list of non-citizen voters voted multiple times, including one individual who voted 27 times.The sources report that the DOJ's list of about 400 alleged noncitizen voters includes people who voted multiple times, and that one individual voted as many as 27 times, consistent with the 'more than two dozen' figure. The 27-vote figure comes from DOJ prosecutors' own account and is not independently verified, and Washington's Secretary of State has disputed the list's accuracy, particularly older 1990s records.4 sources →

   ▶ 6:19

8. 8Can’t tellNon-citizens identified by the DOJ were granted citizenship after they had already voted in Washington state elections.The claim restates the DOJ's own allegation that some identified people later naturalized after voting. The sources show the DOJ asserted this with hedged language ('may have subsequently naturalized'), and the Washington Secretary of State says the list is unreliable and includes U.S. citizens, but no source independently verifies the naturalization-after-voting sequence.4 sources →

   ▶ 6:45

9. 9Can’t tellSome non-citizens were registered to vote by NGOs and rights groups that did not inform them that they were ineligible to vote.The sources do not establish that NGOs or rights groups registered non-citizens without telling them they were ineligible. The only related reporting is an open federal investigation into three Arizona nonprofits, based on an undercover video, and the DNC calls the allegations fabricated, so the claim remains unproven rather than refuted.5 sources →

   ▶ 9:16

10. 10Can’t tellOrganizations are registering non-citizens to vote without telling them they are ineligible.The sources show the DOJ opened a case on October 30 into allegations that three Arizona nonprofits registered noncitizens without telling them they were ineligible, but no source establishes that the conduct occurred. The only support is the claimant's own words and a contested right-wing video, while the DNC denies it and Democracy Docket says the evidence does not appear strong. The claim also generalizes the post's "some of them" about NGOs to "organizations" in general, which the passage does not say.9 sources →

    ▶ 9:17

11. 11Can’t tellOrganizations teaching English as a Second Language classes offered to sign students up to vote without informing them that they were not allowed to vote.None of the provided sources addresses the claim that ESL-class organizations signed students up to vote without disclosing they were ineligible. The only source on the topic is the claimant's own remarks in the post, which cannot corroborate it; the extraction faithfully reflects the passage. As of 2026-10-27 the claim cannot be graded in either direction.5 sources →

    ▶ 9:32

12. 12Can’t tellNon-citizens in Washington state are having ballots cast in their names by someone else without their knowledge.The claim departs from the passage: the speaker only speculated ('Maybe... some harvesting organization...'), and the extracted claim states as fact that noncitizens' ballots are cast by others without their knowledge. The sources report DOJ allegations that over 400 noncitizens were registered and voted, but say investigators lack official voting records, no charges have been filed, and no source reports third parties filling out ballots in noncitizens' names without their knowledge, so the claim is neither supported nor contradicted.7 sources →

    ▶ 10:27

13. 13TrueWashington Secretary of State Steve Hobbs has stated there have been 15 confirmed cases of illegal voting in the state since 1982.Multiple sources report that Washington Secretary of State Steve Hobbs cited 15 documented cases of noncitizen or illegal voting in the state between 1982 and 2025, including a direct quote from Hobbs on KHQ. The sources describe these as noncitizen voting cases rather than 'illegal voting' in general, but the post itself uses 'confirmed illegal voting', which matches the documented-case framing.5 sources →

    ▶ 11:12

14. 14TrueSteve Hobbs described the press conference held by the speaker as intended to cast unfounded suspicion on the results of the November 3rd election.Reuters (tier1) and KNKX both quote Washington Secretary of State Steve Hobbs saying the timing of the DOJ request, one week before the General Election, 'is no doubt intended to cast unfounded suspicion on the results.' The claim's core assertion is supported. The sources frame the remark as aimed at the timing of the request and the press conference announcing it, which is a close match to the claim's wording. The claim is consistent with the post's own text, and its referent for 'the speaker' is the official who held the press conference.4 sources →

    ▶ 11:59

15. 15TrueWashington state is an attestation state for voter registration.Washington registrants must sign or affirm an attestation of U.S. citizenship and eligibility under RCW 29A.08.123 and county and Secretary of State guidance, which matches the claim that it is an attestation state. Sources published before 2026-10-27 support this, and the extraction faithfully reflects the speaker's 'our state' referring to Washington.5 sources →

    ▶ 15:06

16. 16Can’t tellThere are 400 individuals who are not legally allowed to vote in the United States who cast ballots in Washington state.The sources report that the DOJ alleges more than 400 noncitizens, many of them green-card holders, registered and voted in Washington, but this is the government's own allegation and no independent authority has verified or dismissed it. The Secretary of State questioned the timing and the findings, so the claim rests on an uncorroborated allegation; the claim also presents the DOJ's allegation as established fact, which the passage does not do.9 sources →

    ▶ 16:38

17. 17TrueA margin of 400 votes would have decided the 2004 Washington gubernatorial election.The 2004 Washington gubernatorial race was decided by a final hand-recount margin of 129 votes (initial count 261, machine recount 42), so a 400-vote margin would have exceeded the actual margin at every stage and would have decided the race. The sources do not address this counterfactual directly, so the verdict rests on the arithmetic from the recorded margins; the claim's Washington referent comes from the post's own mention of Washington State.6 sources →

    ▶ 19:51

18. 18TrueA margin of 400 votes would have decided a Washington commissioner of public lands election.The 2024 Washington Commissioner of Public Lands primary was decided by a margin of about 51 votes (the recount found 49), so a 400-vote margin would have been decisive in that contest. No source addresses the hypothetical 400-vote figure directly, and the 'Washington' referent is resolved from the post's mention of Washington State.5 sources →

    ▶ 19:54

19. 19TrueThe U.S. Attorney's Office notified the State of Washington of a list of names of people identified as non-citizens voting in elections.The claim matches the record: on October 26, 2026, the acting U.S. Attorneys in Seattle and Spokane sent Secretary of State Steve Hobbs a letter with a list of more than 400 people they said may be noncitizens voting in Washington. The sources dispute the list's accuracy, not whether it was sent, and the claim's wording tracks the passage.7 sources →

20. 20PredictionWashington's state election officials will allow non-citizens on the DOJ list to vote in the upcoming election, letting their ballots count, if the state takes no action.Can't be checked yet. We check it after Nov 3, 2026.

    ▶ 20:33

21. 21TrueThe U.S. Attorney's Office held a press conference one week before the 2026 election regarding an investigation into non-citizen voting.The U.S. Attorney's Office for Western Washington held a news conference on Monday, October 26, 2026, one week before the November 3 election, announcing a non-citizen voting investigation that identified 405 cases. The claim matches the post's own reference to a press conference a week before a major election, and the sources confirm the office, date, and subject.3 sources →

    ▶ 21:36

22. 22TrueNeil Floyd is the acting U.S. Attorney.Multiple October 26–27, 2026 sources, including a U.S. Attorney's Office press release, identify Neil Floyd as acting U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Washington, so the claim held on 2026-10-27. However, an October 1 AP report says a judge reinstated Roger Rogoff as the district's U.S. attorney, which conflicts with Floyd's title and is not reconciled by the sources.7 sources →

    ▶ 24:57

23. 23TrueThe Department of Justice has provided the state of Washington with a list of names of non-citizens who have allegedly voted in elections.Multiple tier-1 sources (AP, Reuters, and a DOJ press release) confirm that the Justice Department sent Washington's Secretary of State a list of more than 400 people it alleges are noncitizens who voted or are registered to vote, and the claim's word 'allegedly' matches that framing. Secretary of State Hobbs disputes the list's reliability and says it includes U.S. citizens, but he confirms receipt and does not deny the DOJ provided it, so this dispute does not defeat the claim as worded.8 sources →

    ▶ 25:12

24. 24FalseDemocrats in Washington state are letting non-citizens vote illegally.The claim that Democrats in Washington state are letting non-citizens vote illegally departs from the post, which only conditionally said the state would knowingly allow a listed person to vote; the sources show federal prosecutors alleged 400+ noncitizens registered and voted, but Secretary of State Steve Hobbs (a Democrat) disputed the list, citing duplicates and unregistered voters, and demanded individualized proof, so no source establishes that the state knowingly lets noncitizens vote, and the allegation is contested rather than substantiated.8 sources →

    ▶ 25:16

25. 25MixedSukil Peterson lost to Dave Updegrove by 51 votes in the August 2024 Washington Commissioner of Public Lands primary election.The 51-vote margin between Dave Upthegrove and the third-place Republican in the August 6, 2024 Washington Commissioner of Public Lands primary is confirmed by the Secretary of State, but that Republican was Sue Kuehl Pederson, not Sukil Peterson, so the claim's name is contradicted by the sources. The claim also departs from the passage only in the spelling 'Updegrove' versus the sources' 'Upthegrove', which is minor. The 51-vote figure refers to the initial primary count; a later hand recount changed the margin to 49 per Wikipedia.7 sources →

26. 26Can’t tellAn immigration attorney stated on Fox 13 that he has seen at least one case a month of non-citizens voting over his 25 years of practicing immigration law.No provided source contains the immigration attorney's statement on Fox 13 that he has seen at least one case a month over 25 years, so the claim cannot be confirmed or refuted. The claim matches the claimant's passage, and the Fox 13 article [5] in the sources does not include the quote; a KIRO 7 piece [6] quotes a different attorney, Len Saunders, on unrelated registration errors.5 sources →

    ▶ 31:15

27. 27TrueWashington State Secretary of State Steve Hobbs stated that there have been 15 instances of non-citizens voting in Washington state between 1982 and 2025.Multiple sources, including a direct Fox 13 quote of Hobbs saying there were 15 incidences of noncitizen voting from 1982 to 2025, confirm the claim as stated. The claim matches the post's own quotation of Hobbs, so it does not depart from the passage.8 sources →

    ▶ 31:38

28. 28TrueAn immigration attorney stated on Fox 13 that he has seen 15 cases of non-citizens voting in the last two weeks.Source [6] (KOMO, 2026-10-30) quotes immigration attorney Len Saunders saying he has seen at least 15 cases of registration resulting in actual noncitizen voting in the last two weeks, which matches the claimed statement. No source confirms that he said it on Fox 13; the Fox 13 article [3] covers a California case and does not carry the quote, and the KOMO and FrontPage pieces [6][7] are the only records of the statement. The Fox 13 venue is unconfirmed rather than contradicted, so the verdict rests on the statement itself.4 sources →

    ▶ 31:46

29. 29Can’t tellAn immigration attorney has 15 clients whose green cards are in jeopardy because they registered to vote and cast a ballot in Washington state.No source reports the figure of 15 clients or the Fox News interview the post cites. A later KIRO 7 report (published 2026-10-30, after the post) quotes immigration attorney Len Saunders saying he is hearing from 'several' non-citizens who unknowingly registered to vote via a Washington driver's license, which is related but does not confirm the count or the green-card jeopardy framing.4 sources →

    ▶ 34:31

30. 30MixedThe Department of Justice compiled a list of non-citizens who registered to vote in Washington state, and ballots have been turned in under their names approximately 1,500 times.The DOJ did compile and send Washington a list of 400+ people it says are non-citizens registered to vote, and it claimed about 1,500 votes cast by them, so those parts are supported as the DOJ's own assertions. However, Secretary of State Hobbs contradicted the list's reliability, stating it includes U.S. citizens, so the claim that these are definitively non-citizens whose ballots were cast 1,500 times is disputed; as of 2026-10-27 the figures were the DOJ's allegations, not established facts.8 sources →

    ▶ 35:40

31. 31TrueThe Department of Justice provided the Washington Secretary of State with a list of 405 non-citizens who allegedly voted in Washington state.The DOJ provided Washington Secretary of State Steve Hobbs with a list of 405 people it alleges are noncitizens who voted, as shown by the DOJ's own press release, CBS, and AP reporting. Hobbs disputes the list's accuracy, saying it includes citizens, but that dispute concerns the list's reliability, not whether it was provided, and the claim's word 'allegedly' already reflects that the allegations are unproven.7 sources →

    ▶ 39:16

32. 32MixedThe U.S. Attorney's Office identified 405 non-citizens who voted in Washington state elections.The U.S. Attorney's Office did publicly announce that it identified 405 people (about 400+ in its press release) who it said were non-citizens who voted in Washington elections, so the act of identification is supported. However, Secretary of State Steve Hobbs contests the list, saying a preliminary review found it includes U.S. citizens and people who are inactive or not currently registered, and the office admitted it lacks official voting records and has filed no charges, so the non-citizen and voting status is disputed.Minor detail. The sources confirm the claim; only a minor detail differs, such as a name's spelling, a title's wording or a rounding.8 sources →

33. 33Can’t tell11,000 Washington families have taken the Firstmark Challenge.The only figure in the sources is the company's own marketing claim of "11,000+ Clients" on its website (source 3), and a 2026 directory listing gives "over 10,000 clients across multiple states" (source 4). Neither is independent, neither is specific to Washington families, and neither says who took the FirstMark Challenge, so the claim cannot be verified. The claim is consistent with the passage's wording, so no extraction departure applies.5 sources →

    ▶ 42:11

34. 34TrueThe Democracy Renewal Group and other organizations held Zoom meetings with officials to plan responses to potential election scenarios.Multiple 2026 outlets report recordings of Zoom calls in which Democracy Renewal Group figures planned responses to a possible election-legitimacy crisis, which supports the core of the claim. The claim that these meetings included officials is thinly sourced and no independent fact-checker has examined it, so confidence is moderate.8 sources →

    ▶ 43:46

35. 35MixedThe Department of Justice identified 405 non-citizens who are registered to vote in Washington state.The sources confirm that DOJ prosecutors announced a list of 405 people they said were non-citizens registered and voting in Washington, so the identification itself is supported. However, Secretary of State Steve Hobbs's preliminary review found the list includes U.S. citizens and people who are inactive or not currently registered, which contradicts the claim that all 405 are non-citizens who are registered. The claim is also taken as of 2026-10-27, and later coverage (Oct 28-30) of Hobbs's rejection does not change what DOJ announced that day.10 sources →

36. 36TrueWashington Secretary of State Steve Hobbs issued a statement claiming the DOJ's request for voter information one week before the general election is intended to cast unfounded suspicion on the results.Multiple reliable outlets quote Secretary of State Steve Hobbs saying the DOJ request's timing, one week before the General Election, 'is no doubt intended to cast unfounded suspicion on the results.' The extracted claim matches that quoted statement, and the sources do not contradict it.5 sources →

37. 37Can’t tellWes Jones of SellWithWes.com sold a house in Seattle within five days of listing it after it had been on the market for a year with a previous agent.None of the sources documents the specific Seattle sale of the house after a year with a prior agent, so the claim can be neither confirmed nor refuted. The extraction faithfully reflects the post, which is the claimant's own account and not evidence.3 sources →

38. 38TrueThe 60,000 employees offered buyouts represent 27% of Microsoft's global workforce.The 60,000 employees offered buyouts is about 27% of Microsoft's roughly 223,000 global workforce (60,000 / 223,000 ≈ 26.9%). CBS cites AFP's figure of about 27%, CRN says about 27 percent, and AP and NBC describe it as roughly a quarter; the extraction matches the post's wording.5 sources →

39. 39TrueAmy Coleman is the executive vice president of Microsoft.Multiple tier1 and official sources confirm Amy Coleman is Microsoft's Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer, as of the October 27, 2026 posting date (the claim is a faithful, slightly shortened version of the passage, which referred to her as executive vice president of Microsoft). The title is consistent across the Microsoft blog, AP, CRN, and the company's executive leadership page.6 sources →

40. 40TrueWashington State voters will decide in one week whether to repeal the income tax on high earners.The claim holds: Washington's Initiative 645 (IP26-645) is on the November 3, 2026 ballot, which is one week after the October 27 post, and would repeal the 9.9% tax on individual income over $1 million. The post's word 'unconstitutional' was dropped in extraction, which is a faithful qualifier drop and does not change the verdict. Later sources confirm the vote happened as scheduled.5 sources →

41. 41TrueRemoving or defacing political signs is a misdemeanor in Washington State.The Revised Code of Washington RCW 29A.84.040 (primary source, published 2026-10-25) states that a person who removes or defaces lawfully placed political advertising, including yard signs or billboards, without authorization is guilty of a misdemeanor. Multiple independent sources (the statute itself, a Findlaw copy of the code, and a News Tribune explainer) confirm this, so the claim is supported; the claim matches the passage's wording and the 'lawfully placed' qualifier is a minor detail.3 sources →

42. 42TrueKarlin Borisenko released video footage of a Zoom meeting hosted by members of the Chicago Teachers Union.Multiple outlets report that analyst Karlyn Borysenko (the posted name is spelled "Karlin") published video recorded from a Zoom call hosted by Chicago Teachers Union members, with the CTU participants and French counterparts on the call. Most coverage echoes Borysenko's own account and the CTU has not publicly responded, so the evidence is directional rather than independently verified; the spelling difference is treated as the same person.8 sources →

43. 43TrueColumbia University students occupied university buildings and renamed a hall after Hind Rajab.Multiple tier1 sources (Reuters, AP) and tier2 NBC report that Columbia University student protesters occupied Hamilton Hall on April 30, 2024 and renamed it 'Hind's Hall' after Hind Rajab. The post's passage is a faithful basis for the claim, though it refers to 'the occupations' generally; the claim's core (occupation plus renaming at Columbia) is well supported.6 sources →

44. 44TrueMichael Sachs is spending wealth to oppose a candidate in the Chicago school board election.Sources identify the billionaire donor as Michael Sacks (the post and claim spell it 'Sachs'), and they show him funding Common Ground Collective, whose independent expenditures of more than $5 million target CTU-backed school board candidates, including Hilario Dominguez. The claim that he is spending wealth to oppose a candidate in the Chicago school board election is supported as of 2026-10-27, and the spelling difference is not a substantive discrepancy.5 sources →

The claim's spelling "Mike Steel" differs from the sources' "Mike Steele", a minor imprecision that does not change the referent, and the post's own wording matches the claim.4 sources →

46. 46TrueThe federal government has alleged that there are over 400 illegal voters in Washington state.The claim is an allegation about what the federal government said, and multiple tier1 sources, including the U.S. Attorney's Office press release, confirm that federal prosecutors alleged more than 400 noncitizens were registered and had voted illegally in Washington. Secretary of State Steve Hobbs disputes the allegation, but that dispute concerns whether it is true, not whether it was made, and the claim's wording matches the post's paraphrase. The allegation was made on 2026-10-26, before the claim's 2026-10-27 posting date.5 sources →

Mynorthwest and Komonews quote the same voicemail, though Mynorthwest credits KIRO Newsradio with obtaining it, so the claim's 'uncovered' attribution to Fox 13 is a minor conflict that does not change the verdict.3 sources →

The claim is a faithful paraphrase of the post, though all the evidence traces back to Fox 13 itself, so confidence is capped.3 sources →

The claim's 'Form' matches the post's spoken wording, and the source's 'Forum' is a minor difference, and the Zoom detail is a peripheral one the source does not contradict.
