· Texas Border Business
The Texas Secretary of State's Office has referred 117 cases to the Attorney General for investigation regarding potential noncitizen voting. Secretary Robert Howden emphasized that citizenship is necessary to vote in Texas and that the state is committed to ensuring only eligible voters participate in elections. This follows a review of the state's 18 million registered voters against the federal SAVE database, which initially identified 2,724 potential noncitizens. After further investigation, 578 individuals were confirmed as citizens, leading to recommendations for reinstating their voter registrations if previously removed. Texas has been proactive in maintaining voter list integrity since 2025.
