Supports. DHS and HSI/FBI reported the arrest of ten non-citizens, including one illegal alien, for illegally voting in North Carolina elections on October 14–15, 2026.[1]
Supports. The Eastern District of North Carolina announced that a federal grand jury indicted ten individuals, including one illegal alien, for illegally voting in the 2024 election.[2]
