-Source-The Washington Times- The Justice Department announced charges Friday against 19 noncitizens who they say illegally voted in the 2016 election putting a major spotlight on one of President Trumps pet issues. Among those accused of voting are illegal immigrants and legal residents alike though none of them were citizens and therefore werent allowed to register to vote or cast ballots. While far from the millions of votes Mr. Trump has said were illegally cast in 2016 the 19 indictments by a grand jury in North Carolina do highlight a problem that Democrats say doesnt exist in any significant measure. Those charged include four Mexicans two from Haiti two from the Dominican Republic and one each from Italy Grenada Korea Guyana Germany Poland Japan El Salvador Panama Nigeria and the Philippines. In the case of the Dominican man he was ordered deported from the U.S. in the 1980s but obtained a false identity and continued to live here winning citizenship in the 1990s under his bogus persona the government charged. He then registered to vote and cast ballots under the false ID.
