The Trump administration claimed to have identified 250,000 noncitizens registered to vote across four states. However, subsequent communications from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) with state officials have revealed that the data underpinning this claim was preliminary and not fully verified.

This acknowledgment calls into question the accuracy of the initial figures touted by the administration regarding noncitizen voter registration. The DHS has not provided updated or confirmed numbers following the preliminary report.
