Quote:An investigation, if so desired, would help discover the truth.

"Our data comes from the <a class="bbc_url" href='http://projects.iq.harvard.edu/cces/home'>Cooperative Congressional Election Study</a> (CCES). Its large number of observations (32,800 in 2008 and 55,400 in 2010) provide sufficient samples of the non-immigrant sub-population, with 339 non-citizen respondents in 2008 and 489 in 2010. For the 2008 CCES, we also attempted to match respondents to voter files so that we could verify whether they actually voted.


How many non-citizens participate in U.S. elections? More than 14 percent of non-citizens in both the 2008 and 2010 samples indicated that they were registered to vote. Furthermore, some of these non-citizens voted. Our best guess, based upon extrapolations from the portion of the sample with a verified vote, is that 6.4 percent of non-citizens voted in 2008 and 2.2 percent of non-citizens voted in 2010."


Clearly a relatively small percentage of non-citizens have voted in the past. Given the current demographic and treatment of illegal immigrants, it wouldn't be hard to believe that number has increased. Plus, with all the shadiness discovered during the recount, it isn't outside the realm of possibility.
