‘Holy Sh*t’: MAGA Hits the Roof After Blue State Gov Publicly Reveals Computer Error Registered Non-Citizens to Vote

MAGA supporters went off on Tuesday when New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill (D) revealed a “serious software error” led to thousands of non-citizens being registered to vote, confirming fears many conservatives and President Donald Trump have raised.

“Last week I learned that a serious software error in New Jersey’s Motor Vehicle System led to the registration of roughly 6,600 people who indicated that they were not U.S. citizens between June 2023 and June 2024, almost three years prior to my taking office,” Sherrill posted on X. “These individuals answered ‘no’ when asked on a keypad whether they were a U.S. citizen when applying for drivers’ licenses and identification cards, but through no fault of their own, the system registered them anyway.”

Sherill said a “preliminary analysis” showed fewer than 400 people voted illegally. She then bashed Trump, saying he has “zero credibility on the issue of election integrity” and has tried to “weaponize elections for political gain.’

The governor’s admission led to a blitz of comments from pro-Trump pundits and political figures.

“Holy sh*t,” influencer Tim Pool posted. “Even when saying NO they were still registered.”

Former Republican lawmaker George Santos — who was freed from prison last year by Trump after committing multiple campaign finance violations — applauded Sherill for her report.

“I want to thank my former colleague Gov. Sherill for validating the long known fact that she and her party insist are a conspiracy. ‘Illegals aren’t voting in our elections,'” he posted.

Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) ripped Sherrill for “attacking” Trump in her post. Blackburn said if she had any integrity she would insist New Jersey Democrats vote to require ID in federal elections.

“Why isn’t she calling on Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) and Sen. Andy Kim (D-NJ) to pass the SAVE America Act?” Blackburn posted.

Rep. Pat Fallon (R-TX) posted, “400 voters is more than enough to swing an election.” He then sarcastically said, “Anyways, we were told this doesn’t happen.”

Ex-Trump DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin posted, “But I was reliably told by the media that no illegal alien was voting in our elections?”

Fox News contributor Joe Concha similarly posted, “Well, there goes that whole ‘illegals would never vote because it’s already illegal’ argument…”

Ex-CBS reporter Lara Logan was not thrilled with Sherrill’s news.

“Give me a break — they will always blame [these] things like this on a ‘glitch’ if you allow them to get away with it,” she posted. “As long as there are machines, there will be ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY for everything they control.”

And right-wing influencer Robby Starbuck posted it was “possible that illegal immigrants decided” dozens of NJ elections.

Sherrill’s post comes the week after DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said a probe found 250,000 non-citizens were registered to vote in four states, including New Jersey. Mullin sent a letter to representatives for the states — which also included California, Nevada, and Pennsylvania — demanding they rectify the issue; he said officials who do not boot illegal voters could face fines or even “prison time.”

Mullin thanked Sherrill for the “quick work” on the matter on Tuesday, but said it “should’ve been done a LONG time ago.”

Trump has routinely complained illegal immigrants have been allowed to vote in Democrat-run states. He posted an FBI document last week which claimed China’s communist government created “tens of thousands” of bogus driver’s licenses, and claimed they were created to help  Chinese nationals vote for then-candidate Joe Biden in the 2020 election.
