"State and federal laws prohibit non-citizens from voting in national and local elections.

The mistake occurred in part because Oregon has allowed non-citizens to obtain driver’s licenses since 2019, and the DMV automatically registers most people to vote when they obtain a license or ID, Glenn said."

      And only 2 of them ever voted. Literally more likely to have ballots lost in the mail than to have people who aren’t supposed to vote sneak through.
