In North Carolina, the non-partisan group VoteRiders is actively assisting residents in obtaining the necessary state IDs to comply with the new voter ID law, which some fear may disenfranchise voters. They are providing financial assistance for documents like birth certificates and offering transportation services to help individuals secure their IDs. Meanwhile, Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose has identified 597 noncitizens who registered to vote, including 138 who allegedly cast ballots without citizenship, and has referred these cases for potential prosecution. LaRose's extensive audit, which has already purged over 155,000 inactive voter registrations, is part of his commitment to uphold election integrity amidst criticisms of voter suppression. The findings are seen as part of a broader Republican strategy as the 2024 elections approach, despite civil rights organizations warning that such measures may disproportionately impact eligible voters. The last day for voter registration in Ohio is set for October 7.
