House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) responded to the so-called glitch in New Jersey’s MVD voter registration system that illegally signed thousands of noncitizens up to vote by accusing Republicans of voter suppression on Sunday.
During an appearance on CNN’s State of the Union, Jeffries somehow claimed that Republicans are using the issue for voter suppression as if stopping illegal voters is suppression. Perhaps this would suppress the Democrat vote, which relies heavily on cheating.
Host Dana Bash confronted Jeffries with the damning fact that “New Jersey just disclosed that 6,660 noncitizens were mistakenly registered to vote there from 2023 to 2024.” New Jersey admits that at least 400 noncitizens voted, but Bash was sure to mention, “It is a small number compared to the 7 million voters in New Jersey, and there’s no evidence that that swayed any election.”
“Democrats have repeatedly said that noncitizen voting doesn’t happen. It happened. Is this a problem?” she asked.
“I think that I continue to have confidence in state and local authorities in making sure that there’s going to be a free and fair election in November, and if modest or minor challenges emerge, such as the one that was disclosed voluntarily by the authorities in New Jersey, that it is immediately corrected, and that’s what I expect will continue to happen,” Jeffries responded before going on an unhinged tirade, claiming that the Republicans are engaging in voter suppression by trying to prevent the so-called “modest or minor challenges” before they happen.
“Unfortunately, what we’ve seen from Donald Trump is that in this particular case, Republicans have adopted voter suppression as an electoral strategy,” Jeffries said before attacking Trump’s agenda.
