Summary

Earlier this year, Texas quietly admitted to the federal government that non-citizens had been mistakenly registered to vote there due to clerical errors, the same kind of mistake now fueling outrage over New Jersey. Democracy Docket founder Marc Elias breaks down what actually happened in both states, why neither is proof of the voter fraud conspiracy Republicans are selling, and why the SAVE Act and voter ID laws wouldn't have stopped either error.
