The Department of Justice announced charges against 63 people across 15 states on Monday for election-related crimes, according to the Washington Examiner. The announcement comes just one day before the United States midterm elections. The charges involve illegal voting, fraudulent voter registration, and false claims of United States citizenship. [1]

The Washington Examiner reported that four of those charged were illegal immigrants, while the citizenship status of the other defendants was not made immediately clear. In a related development, the San Luis Obispo Tribune reported that San Luis Obispo County rejected a Department of Justice demand to withhold ballots from 63 suspected noncitizens. [1][2]

The latest charges bring the total number of people charged with voting fraud offenses since Donald Trump returned to office to 239, according to the Washington Examiner. As FTMQ News reported earlier, the Justice Department previously charged 48 noncitizens across five states with illegal voting and voter fraud in late October, including 28 individuals located in California.
