Earlier this year, Republican Secretary of State Dianna Durán said she found 37 cases of foreign nationals, including illegal immigrants, who may have cast ballots in New Mexico.  That came as she was verifying registrations for people without Social Security numbers who received New Mexico driver’s licenses.

“The public record provides critical evidence that noncitizens with and without driver’s licenses have registered to vote and that noncitizens have voted in New Mexico elections,” Durán told News 13 in March.

And Durán was quoted as saying: 

“To those who say that vote fraud (if it does exist) is ‘insignificant,’ our answer is that no instance of vote fraud, or ineligible registration, or ineligible voting, is now, or ever will be ‘insignificant’ to this office,” said Durán in the report. “Every single vote cast by an ineligible voter cancels and invalidates a vote cast by a legal voter and leaves that law-abiding citizen completely disenfranchised.”
