Why Is D.H.S. Getting Involved in Elections?

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is scrutinizing noncitizens among registered voters, despite no substantial evidence of widespread election fraud. DHS is leveraging open-source state voter registration databases to identify potential discrepancies. This move has sparked debate about the integrity and security of the electoral process, raising concerns about the government's role in policing voter eligibility and the potential for misuse of such efforts. This scrutiny underscores broader tensions about immigration and voter rights in American politics.
