New Jersey experienced a voting error due to a software malfunction that permitted non-citizens to be registered to vote. Governor officials confirmed that thousands were incorrectly added to voter rolls, and approximately 400 non-citizens actually cast ballots. The issue stemmed from a system glitch during a Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) upgrade, where citizenship status verification failed. While the exact number of affected individuals is still being determined, officials are working to rectify the error and understand its full scope. This incident raises concerns about election integrity and the accuracy of voter registration databases. Authorities have not yet detailed the repercussions for those who mistakenly voted or how future occurrences will be prevented. The investigation is ongoing to identify and address the root cause of the software failure.
