Texas Indicts Seven Foreign Nationals For Voting In 2024 Election
The seven defendants include three Mexican citizens, two Nigerians, an Indian national and a Congolese national, charged under federal election law.
- Texas Attorney General's Office (OAG) announced on Sept. 15, 2026 the indictment of seven foreign nationals for voting illegally in the 2024 election.
- "I will not tolerate attempts to rig elections and silence the will of American citizens and voters."
- Three Mexican nationals, two Nigerians, one Indian and one Congolese citizen face voting-by-an-alien charges.
Why it matters: A registration system that verifies citizenship only after the vote is cast has already failed its one job.
