Mr. Richman calculated that Mrs. Clinton would have collected 81 percent of noncitizen votes.
“Is
it plausible that non-citizen votes added to Clinton’s margin? Yes,”
Mr. Richman wrote. “Is it plausible that non-citizen votes account for
the entire nation-wide popular vote margin held by Clinton? Not at all.”
Still,
the finding is significant because it means noncitizens may have helped
Mrs. Clinton carry a state or finish better than she otherwise would
have.
Mr. Trump’s
unverified accusation to congressional leaders this week, as reported by
The Washington Post, has sent the issue skyward.
He apparently
was referring to all types of fraud, such as the “dead” voting or
multiple votes from the same person. But the thrust of his estimate
appears to be that illegal immigrants and noncitizens carried the
popular vote.
