On or about November 8, 2022, and November 5, 2024, MIGLIORE cast a ballot, which was obtained by falsely certifying that she was a U.S. citizen and eligible to vote, when, in fact, she was not eligible to vote because she was not a citizen of the United States.If convicted, MIGLIORE faces a maximum penalty of five (5) years in prison, followed by three (3) years of supervised release. MIGLIORE also faces a fine of up to $250,000, and a $100.00 mandatory special assessment fee.“This alien from Australia now faces federal charges for falsely claiming to be a U.S. citizen and illegally casting ballots in two elections,” said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis.“Her arrest and charges are the result of the hard work of the men and women of ICE law enforcement and our federal partners. Our message to aliens who vote in American elections is clear: we will find you, arrest you, and you will face the consequences, including criminal charges and deportation. Only Americans should be electing American leaders.”Louisiana Secretary of State Nancy Landry credited the state’s proactive use of the federal SAVE database and her Election Integrity Division for helping flag this case in partnership with federal authorities.“This case originated from information identified through Louisiana’s use of the federal SAVE database and the diligent work of our Election Integrity Division, in partnership with federal law enforcement authorities,” Landry wrote on X.“Every illegal vote cast diminishes the value of the vote of a lawful citizen and erodes public trust in our elections.”“Cases like this send a clear message that Louisiana takes election integrity seriously, and we will continue using every available tool to ensure that only eligible citizens participate in our elections,” she added.This case originated from information identified through Louisiana’s use of the federal SAVE database and the diligent work of our Election Integrity Division, in partnership with federal law enforcement authorities.”— Louisiana Secretary of State Nancy Landry (@Louisiana_sos) June 16, 2026The post Homeland Security Arrests Australian Permanent Resident For Illegally Voting In 2022 And 2024 Federal Elections After Falsely Claiming U.S. Citizenship appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.
