WE MUST ENSURE THAT ONLY U.S. CITIZENS ARE ALLOWED TO VOTE

• The U.S. electoral system is designed to give every eligible U.S. citizen in every state a say in choosing our leaders at the federal, state, and local levels.
• The federal National Voter Registration Act requires that states take steps to ensure that only eligible citizens are registered to vote.
• Due to the failure of the Biden-Harris Administration to secure the border, states must work even harder to ensure that their elections are not compromised by illegal aliens casting votes.
• Over 12 million illegal aliens, including known “gotaways,” have entered the country since 2021.
• Further, the Biden-Harris Administration issued Executive Order 14019, directing all federal agencies to register voters, including many federal agencies that interact regularly with illegal aliens.
• These unprecedented efforts put even more responsibility on states to protect the integrity of their elections.

BY THE NUMBERS

• Georgia is home to at least 350,000 illegal aliens, but this number does not account for the major influx of the last 3 years.
• Georgia has a population of 10,711,908.
• 350,000 illegal aliens represent 3.27% of Georgia’s population. Though this seems a small fraction, it’s enough to make a difference in close elections.
• During the 2020 presidential race, Georgia was decided by just 11,779 votes.
• During the 2016 presidential race, Georgia was decided by just 211,141 votes.
• During the 2020 senate race, the seat was decided by just 88,098 votes.
• During the 2021 senate runoff, the seat was decided by just 93,272 votes.

GEORGIA MUST TAKE STEPS TO ENSURE ONLY CITIZENS VOTE

• Governors should issue an America First model executive order to enforce state election laws and ensure that only eligible U.S. citizens vote.
• State legislators should pass legislation that ensures only U.S. citizens are voting using the America First model policy.
• State election officials should conduct regular voter roll maintenance for transparency and accountability.
• Voters should support ballot initiatives to enshrine citizen-only voting in their state Constitution and elect officials who will enforce it.
