What's behind Republicans' false claims of noncitizens voting?

WNYC | Sep 12, 2024

It's an allegation that's centuries old, but is increasingly becoming prominent in political discourse — that noncitizens are voting en masse to influence American elections. Even though it isn't true, it is influencing policy discussions, and having an impact on registered voters.

This episode: White House correspondent Asma Khalid, voting correspondent Miles Parks, and correspondent Jude Joffe-Block.
