Analysis Finds Over 40% of Alleged Noncitizen Voters Absent From California Voter Rolls
An analysis found that more than 40% of names on a Department of Justice list, identified as alleged noncitizen voters in California, were not present on the state's voter registration rolls.
Rockford, IL, October 31, 2026 — A recent analysis has revealed a notable discrepancy regarding a list compiled by the Department of Justice (DOJ) concerning alleged noncitizen voters in California. According to the findings, more than 40% of the names on this DOJ list were not found on the state’s official voter registration rolls.
The Department of Justice had identified these individuals as alleged noncitizens potentially registered to vote. However, an examination of the data indicated that a significant portion of these names did not correspond with records maintained by the state of California for registered voters.
The analysis highlights the complexity of voter roll maintenance and the process of identifying potential inaccuracies. The specific methodology and the exact number of names on the DOJ list were not detailed in the provided information. Likewise, the timeline for when this DOJ list was compiled or when the analysis was conducted was not specified.
The outcome of the analysis suggests that while concerns about noncitizens voting may exist, the data from this particular DOJ list does not fully align with California’s active voter registration records for a substantial percentage of the individuals named. Further details regarding the source of the DOJ list, the criteria used for identification, and the implications of this divergence are not presently available.
