COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Seventeen noncitizens voted illegally in battleground Ohio in the 2012 presidential election year, and an additional 274 were registered but did not vote, the state's elections chief said Wednesday.


Secretary of State Jon Husted said he was able to identify non-U.S. citizens on Ohio's voter rolls for the first time through the matching of voter records and license and ID information kept by the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles.


"None of my predecessors attempted to investigate or answer the noncitizen question because they couldn't," he said at a news conference. "Information about citizenship (kept by the bureau) and the elections system were not designed to work together."


Husted emphasized that none of the identified cases involved immigrants who were in the country illegally. In the most egregious case, a noncitizen who was in the country legally had been voting in Ohio — which is against the law — since 1993.


Results of the review will be turned over to Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine for possible prosecution. Husted said he also will give those identified the chance to cancel their registrations.

:whoa:

Imagine if they were asked for identification before they voted??
 
Those are only the ones that selected "not a citizen" on their form. The only check, literally the only one, is that checkbox.

James Lee's testimony[edit]

On 17 April 2001, James Lee testified, before the McKinney panel, that the state had given DBT the directive to add to the purge list people who matched at least 90% of a last name. DBT objected, knowing that this would produce a huge number of false positives (non-felons).[4]

Lee went on saying that the state then ordered DBT to shift to an even lower threshold of 80% match, allowing also names to be reversed (thus a person named Thomas Clarence could be taken to be the same as Clarence Thomas). Besides this, middle initials were skipped, Jr. and Sr. suffixes dropped, and some nicknames and aliases were added to puff up the list.

"DBT told state officials", testified Lee, "that the rules for creating the [purge] list would mean a significant number of people who were not deceased, not registered in more than one county, or not a felon, would be included on the list. DBT made suggestions to reduce the numbers of eligible voters included on the list". According to Lee, to this suggestion the state told the company, "Forget about it".

"The people who worked on this (for DBT) are very adamant... they told them what would happen", said Lee. "The state expected the county supervisors to be the failsafe." Lee said his company will never again get involved in cleansing voting rolls. "We are not confident any of the methods used today can guarantee legal voters will not be wrongfully denied the right to vote", Lee told a group of Atlanta-area black lawmakers in March 2001.[7]
 
Details about the errors[edit]

There were many specific problems with the purge list regarding the verification of felons, including over 4,000 blank conviction dates, and over 325 conviction dates dating in the future.[9]

Nearly 3,000 out-of-state felons with voting rights restored, as well as voters linked to felonies in states which do not remove felons from voting rolls or that automatically restore voting rights, were included on the list. According to a 1998 ruling by the 2nd District Court of Appeals, they cannot then be ruled ineligible by another state.[citation needed]

DBT had decided in March 1999 not to include felon lists from South Carolina or Texas, which automatically restore voting rights, but that was overruled by the head of the Florida Office of Executive Clemency, Janet Keels, who ordered inclusion of any felon who did not have a written order of clemency, even from these states, wrongly placing 996 voters on the felon list. Florida did not restore their voting rights until three months after the election.

Additionally, a number of persons listed as felons had been convicted of misdemeanors only, and therefore were eligible by law.

Greg Palast, who has investigated this issue and identified occurrences of these problems, provides a sample of 23 names as they appear on the Florida 2000 felons list, with five examples of these erroneous listings highlighted (this represents a minimum rate of inaccuracy
 
thousands were illegally kept from voting in florida in that year.


now remember Bush only "won" by 500 OR SO
 
Purging legal voters off voting lists is the only way republicans can win elections
