League of Women Voters North Carolina Releases Statement Regarding Citizenship Ballot Question

In a new statement titled, "A Solution Without a Problem: LWVNC Opposes Unnecessary Efforts to Address Unfounded Claims of Non-Citizen Voting," LWVNC said that it "does not support proof of citizenship as part of the voter registration and voting processes."

The Leagues goes on to say, "This fall, the statewide ballot includes a completely unnecessary constitutional amendment that seeks to clarify that only citizens can vote. The amendment builds on unfounded anti-immigrant fears and conspiracy theories that non-citizens are committing widespread voter fraud and threatening our elections."
