Heather Honey of the Department of Homeland Security works to verify noncitizen voter data for Nevada and other states.

The administration announced that it has identified over 250,000 noncitizens on the voter rolls of Nevada and three other states. However, state officials in Nevada and Pennsylvania are seeking more specific data to verify these numbers. Heather Honey, a Department of Homeland Security official, stated that her team is working in good faith to help states identify noncitizens. While the administration initially reported nearly 16,000 noncitizens in Nevada, officials acknowledged that this figure represents a maximum ceiling and requires manual review. DHS provided a list of 185 high-confidence noncitizen voters, but Nevada officials requested more data points to act on the findings. California officials expressed concern that the administration's search for noncitizens might lead to the reckless removal of eligible U.S. citizens from the voter rolls. Meanwhile, a Census Bureau report suggests that 500 noncitizens voted in Wisconsin's 2020 general election, though experts note issues with the data methodology.
