While Congress is essentially twiddling its thumbs over the SAVE America Act, an important election-integrity issue will play out before the Supreme Court. The federal government, by using the National Voter Registration Act, is trying to override the states\u2019 efforts to rid their voter rolls of illegal aliens.<\/p>

A few issues arise regarding eligibility for voting in state and federal elections, and also the timing of when illegal aliens can be removed from the voter rolls. Three secretaries of state have\u00a0filed a friend-of-the-court brief\u00a0in the\u00a0RNC v. Mi Familia Vota<\/em>\u00a0case:<\/p>\n

\n

Republicans and election-integrity advocates argue that the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals \u2018erased\u2019 a \u2018constitutional boundary\u2019 in declaring Arizona\u2019s election integrity laws unlawful. The secretaries of state note that the U.S. Constitution \u2018confers upon States the authority to determine who is qualified to vote\u2019 through the\u00a0voter qualification clause.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u2018The Ninth Circuit was wrong in this case. States determine voter qualifications and perform voter list maintenance. Nothing in the National Voter Registration Act changed this longstanding tenet of federalism,\u2019 Nebraska Secretary of State Robert Evnen, told The Federalist exclusively in a statement.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Arizona\u2019s election integrity laws allowed applicants to vote in congressional and local races without proof of citizenship, but not in presidential elections or by mail. But in 2024, SCOTUS stayed lower court decisions that allowed individuals to use the federal registration form to vote in the presidential election and by mail. In so doing, the 9th<\/sup>\u00a0Circuit decided that Arizona\u2019s election integrity laws were unlawful, even though the states are the ones who determine whether voters are qualified or not to vote.<\/p>\n

Also, at issue is what is called a 90-day \u201cquiet period,\u201d when no changes are supposedly to be made to the voter rolls.\u00a0That is not, however, what was intended by the NVRA rule:<\/p>

\n

The plain text of the statute does not require states to keep an individual registered who was never eligible to be registered in the first place, and any interpretation of the NVRA that would require states to keep an alien registered to vote when both state and federal criminal laws bar an alien from registering would render the NVRA unconstitutional.<\/p>\n

Aliens Barred from Registering or Voting by Federal Law<\/p>\n

Aliens are barred from registering or voting in federal elections. It is a felony under 18 U.S.C. \u00a7 1015 (f) for an alien to \u2018claim that he is a citizen of the United States in order to register to vote or to vote in any Federal, State, or local election (including an initiative, recall, or referendum).\u2019 Another federal statute, 18 U.S.C. \u00a7 911, makes it a felony to \u2018falsely and willfully\u2019 claim to be a citizen.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Key to understanding the 90-day limitation is that it\u00a0does not apply<\/em>\u00a0to an illegal alien who wasn\u2019t permitted to register to vote at all and who was committing a criminal act by registering to vote. He should be removed from the voter rolls, even within the 90-day \u201cquiet period.\u201d<\/p>\n

The case can be\u00a0summarized in this way:<\/p>\n

\n

The case centers on two critical questions: whether states can require documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote, and whether they can remove confirmed noncitizens from voter rolls during the 90 days before a federal election, the so-called \u2018quiet period\u2019 established by the NVRA.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

If SCOTUS does not rule on these two questions, the NVRA should be ruled unconstitutional.<\/p>
