Quote:Over the weekend, a University of Michigan student from China – and a noncitizen – seemed to very easily register to vote and cast a ballot in an election the student has no business voting in. Election officials say there is no way to invalidate the student’s ballot since it’s already been tabulated. As a Michigan resident and U.S. citizen, I find that appalling. First, a little more about what happened. The student is a 19-year-old from China who registered to vote using his university ID and other documents proving residency in Ann Arbor, where the university is located. The student also signed a document saying he was a U.S. citizen. His ballot was then entered into a tabulator. The only reason the student got caught is that he allegedly later requested the ballot back. The student has now been charged with two crimes, since voting as a noncitizen is illegal in the United States. While this may be an isolated incident, it also highlights that fraud can and does happen. If this student initially got away with the fraud, and will have his vote counted, then how many others have as well? In Michigan, a pivotal swing state in the presidential election, every vote is going to matter. In 2016, Trump won the state by fewer than 11,000 votes. And it’s expected to be close this time, too.
