Raffensperger Calls Georgia's Rolls Cleanest, Audit Flags 432 Potential Noncitizen Voters

Raffensperger Calls Georgia's Rolls Cleanest, Audit Flags 432 Potential Noncitizen Voters

The Georgia Department of Audits and Accounts ran the count at the Senate Appropriations Committee's request, checking 7.9 million registrations to 1996.

  • Auditors estimated 99.9% of registrations were accurate, leaving 0.1% with unverified identity or citizenship.
  • 204 of the 432 flagged as potential noncitizens already sat in 'Pending Citizenship' status.
  • The remaining 228 surfaced only after cross-checking state rolls against the federal SAVE database.

Why it matters: Cleanest in the nation is the press release's phrase; the audit itself compares Georgia to no other state.
