As many as 5.7 million noncitizens may have voted in the 2008 election, which put Barack Obama in the White House, according to research organization Just Facts, (Associated Press/File)

A research group in New Jersey has taken a fresh look at postelection polling data and concluded that the number of noncitizens voting illegally in U.S. elections is likely far greater than previous estimates.

As many as 5.7 million noncitizens may have voted in the 2008 election, which put Barack Obama in the White House.

The research organization Just Facts, a widely cited, independent think tank led by self-described conservatives and libertarians, revealed its number-crunching in a report on national immigration.

Just Facts President James D. Agresti and his team looked at data from an extensive Harvard/YouGov study that every two years questions a sample size of tens of thousands of voters. Some acknowledge they are noncitizens and are thus ineligible to vote.

  1. I don't understand why this is so difficult.

    I know we have the weird hybrid system because of the 14th Amendment, but this is ridiculous. The US as it is doesn't function in important areas.
