New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill (D) announced she will block the release of over 6,600 noncitizens to the Trump administration who were allegedly registered to vote illegally in her state. She even referred to these noncitizens as “citizens of New Jersey.” What could she be hiding?
REPORTER: "The Trump administration is seeking, I believe by today, the list of noncitizens who are registered to vote and the approximately 400 that did vote. To what extent will your administration comply with the Trump administration's request in that regard?"
SHERRILL: "As I have said, I am not in the habit of turning over private, identifying information of the citizens of New Jersey... I am working to protect people and their private data here in New Jersey."
OK, but they're not citizens.
