The department has made 151 arrests and is reviewing an additional 300,000 potential cases, including allegations involving noncitizens from countries such as Mexico, Nigeria, India, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Mullin emphasizes ongoing efforts to identify individuals who voted illegally and asserts that such illegal votes undermine the integrity of elections. The Biden governance has prioritized deterring illegal voting,with directives and legal measures to enforce penalties,including deportation,against foreigners who vote illegally. DHS officials underscore the importance of protecting the electoral process and ensuring that only eligible citizens participate.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin revealed on Saturday that his agency is investigating 1,620 allegations of voter fraud across the country.<\/p>\n<p>Mullin told Fox News host Kayleigh McEnany that DHS has so far made 151 arrests \u2014 and is examining another 300,000 possible cases of fraud.<\/p>\n<p>McEnany noted in the interview that DHS was able to prosecute foreigners from countries like Mexico, Nigeria, India, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo for alleged voter fraud.<\/p>\n<p>Mullin reacted by noting that \u201cthis list is only growing, by the way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis list is continuing to be compiled by states of their own public voting registers,\u201d he added. \u201cSo we\u2019re going through and we\u2019re scrubbing them, we\u2019re comparing them with those that are in the country, those that are legal permanent residents.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">JUST IN: DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin says the department is investigating 1,620 cases of <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >alleged voter fraud involving noncitizens casting ballots<\/a> in U.S. elections.<\/p>\n<p>Mullin says DHS has made 151 arrests and is reviewing 300,000 additional cases.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe president was right when\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/KoJMltOSBK\">pic.twitter.com\/KoJMltOSBK<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Fox News (@FoxNews) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/FoxNews\/status\/2101320869062545501?\">September 19, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>From there, DHS is working to determine where the individuals were, and whether they indeed were not permitted to vote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe president was right when he said there was a tremendous amount of fraud in the election,\u201d Mullin said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe continue to see that.
