Are you concerned about potential voter fraud?

Based on recent official U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announcements, the primary forms of election interference under active investigation and prosecution center on voter fraud and related election crimes, with a strong emphasis on non-citizen (alien) voting and fraudulent registration.

In a November 2, 2026, press release, the DOJ announced charges involving 63 individuals (including four illegal aliens) for illegal voting, fraudulent voter registration, and related offenses across multiple districts.

Cases specifically include:
• Voting by aliens (non-citizens) in federal elections.
• False claims of U.S. citizenship in order to register to vote or to vote.
• Fraudulent submission of voter registration applications (including in another state).
Attorney General Todd Blanche described this as “the largest surge of voter-fraud arrests since President Trump returned to office,” noting that foreign nationals allegedly exploited election laws. In the prior nine weeks alone, the DOJ charged 195 aliens across 25 states with illegal voting and registration offenses; since the start of the administration, it has charged 239 people with voting fraud-related offenses.

Earlier official DOJ/U.S. Attorney announcements and related enforcement actions have also referenced prioritizing investigation and prosecution of:
• Casting of fraudulent ballots.
• Individuals voting multiple times in the same election.
• Voting on behalf of the deceased.
• Foreign nationals contributing or donating funds to U.S. elections (a form of foreign interference).
• False statements on citizenship applications and unlawful procurement of citizenship tied to voting.

The DOJ’s Civil Rights Division has simultaneously conducted large-scale election monitoring (approximately 1,000 monitors/observers deployed across all 50 states for the first time) focused on compliance with federal voting-rights statutes, transparency, and election integrity.

Separate official activity has included investigations into suspicious mailings/letters sent to election officials (involving the FBI and U.S. Postal Inspection Service). Cyber-related public service announcements from CISA and the FBI have also warned election and campaign officials about phishing/smishing and other cyber techniques that could target voter data or systems, though recent high-profile DOJ charging announcements have centered on the voter-fraud categories above.

These details are drawn directly from DOJ Office of Public Affairs releases and related official statements.

Prior administrations and intelligence community assessments (e.g., from ODNI/FBI/CISA) have publicly addressed foreign malign influence operations (disinformation, cyber targeting of campaigns) by actors such as Russia and Iran, but the most recent DOJ charging and monitoring announcements prioritize the domestic election-crime forms listed.
