Democrats in Vermont want noncitizens to vote in elections. Republicans believe elections should be decided only by American citizens, so the Republican National Committee is fighting back.
RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel: “Democrats are trying to dismantle the integrity of our elections. In addition to attacking widely supported safeguards like voter ID, Democrats also want foreign citizens to vote in American elections. Republicans are fighting back on this far-left assault against election integrity – unlike radical Democrats, we believe that our elections should be decided solely by American citizens. This is a matter of principle and we will fight in all 50 states to ensure this remains the case.”
The RNC and the VTGOP are today suing the cities of Montpelier and Winooski, Vermont over their new town charters that allow noncitizens to vote in their municipal elections.

This radical scheme passed by state Democrats is a blatant attack on election integrity.
It’s part of an unprecedented effort by the RNC to fight for commonsense election integrity measures – which by the way, A MAJORITY OF AMERICANS SUPPORT – including the installation of a team of state-based election integrity directors and attorneys to establish a year-round, on-the-ground election operations effort.
Free, fair, secure and transparent elections are a fundamental component of a strong democracy. The RNC will keep fighting against Democrat attempts to undermine election integrity.
