I thought so. Though why they are even doing so, i would suspect in the “most democratic country” people at least voted themselves so they know how it looks. In Poland anyone claiming that would be ridiculed because everyone is on the list, you need to show the documents and sign to get the card.
It’s pretty much the exact same thing in the US. Even if you don’t have to show a state ID/driver’s license, you have to be on the list and usually need to show something. You can only get on the list by registering, which requires US citizenship.
The apparent source of this propaganda is based around the concept that some areas allow people with only a Permanent Residency but who have not yet gotten citizenship to vote in some local elections, like school board members, mayors, or on local referenda. This still notably doesn’t apply to anyone who isn’t a permanent resident or citizen nor does it allow permanent residents to vote for the president, or even moderately important figures like congresspeople or governors.
Years of fascist propaganda. Republicans have been explaining away their losses by blaming it on widespread voter fraud for a while now. Typically they claim illegal immigrants are allowed to vote, and that democrats submit fake votes from dead people.
In 2020 there were something like 600 confirmed voter fraud cases in the states that Trump was contesting. There is possibly rigging going on behind the scenes as electronic voting machines have been repeatedly shown to have massive security vulnerabilities, but the fact the republicans aren’t pushing to go back to paper suggests that if there is real voting fraud, they’re fine with it.

I wouldn’t be surprised if there was widespread election fraud but I don’t think it’s the local unregistered migrants voting for 99 percent Hitler

iirc, the only evidence of voter fraud in the 2020 election was on ballots that voted for Trump, as well.
