一家选举诚信监督组织警告称,美国一个蓝色州未能制定充分的选举保障措施,并拒绝在11月中期选举前纠正自身存在的问题。

致力于选举安全的无党派组织“恢复选举诚信与信任”(RITE)指控纽约州选举委员会(NYSBOE)拒不配合修改该州选民登记表以符合联邦选举法的要求。

该监督组织于2025年底致信纽约州选举委员会,列出了多项违规行为,称若不加以解决,可能损害该州的选举诚信。

在该委员会未能纠正大部分违规行为后,RITE与特尼议员要求委员会提交全面记录和数据,以找出该州选民登记系统中存在的其他缺陷。

“你们迟迟不予回应,这令人不安,也无视了联邦法律要求的确保公众信任纽约州维护准确选民名册的必要性。”他们在本周早些时候致纽约州选举委员会的一封信中写道,该信件已被福克斯新闻数字频道获取。

若纽约州选举委员会未能在2026年5月的最后期限前满足他们的要求,RITE与特尼议员表示已准备好向联邦法院提起诉讼,强制该委员会遵守联邦法律。

该监督组织指控纽约州选民登记表存在两项违反《帮助美国投票法》(HAVA)的错误。

首先,纽约州未告知选民,若持有驾照则必须提供驾照信息。此外,该州仍在为未提供驾照号码、社保号码最后四位,也未声明两者均无的选民进行登记,而这是联邦法律的强制性要求。

RITE称,这些错误在一定程度上导致数百万纽约选民在登记过程中提供了不完整的信息,使得该州更难准确维护选民名单。

RITE与特尼议员还指控该委员会未按要求开展审计,以确定有多少份不完整的选民登记申请已被处理。

保守派组织公共利益法律基金会2022年的一份报告发现,至少有310万纽约登记选民未在申请表上提供驾照或社保号码。

“法律规定明确:各州不得接受缺少必填身份信息的登记申请表。”RITE主席贾斯汀·里默在一份声明中表示。纽约州自身的条例也明确要求官员们照此执行。这种对重要联邦保障措施的公然违反,严重削弱了纽约州选民登记系统的诚信度。

“我们致力于查清问题的严重程度,并确保该州纠正这一问题。”里默补充道。

作为选举诚信核心小组主席的特尼表示,自2022年以来,她一直呼吁对纽约州选举委员会展开调查。

“透明化和准确的选民名册对于维持公众对选举的信任至关重要。”这位纽约州共和党人在一份声明中说道。“纽约州民众理应得到答案、问责,并全面遵守《帮助美国投票法》,以确保每一张选票的诚信。”

纽约市选举委员会系统近期也因未能落实充分的保障措施而受到审查。

Watchdog, GOP lawmaker warn NY voter registration systems lacks key safeguards

RITE and Rep. Claudia Tenney threaten to go to court if the state’s board of elections doesn’t comply

One blue state is failing to enact adequate voting safeguards and refusing to correct its mistakes ahead of November’s midterm elections, an election integrity watchdog warns.

Restoring Integrity and Trust in Elections (RITE), a nonpartisan organization focused on election security, alleges the New York State Board of Elections (NYSBOE) stonewalled a request to fix the state’s voter registration form to comply with federal voting law.

The watchdog sent the NYSBOE a letter in late 2025 outlining several violations they claimed could undermine the state’s election integrity if left unaddressed.

After the board failed to correct most of the violations, RITE and Tenney are demanding the board hand over comprehensive records and data to identify additional shortcomings in the state’s voter registration system.

TRUMP SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER OVERHAULING MAIL-IN VOTING IN MAJOR ELECTION INTEGRITY PUSH

“Your lack of a response is troubling and disregards the need to ensure public trust that New York is maintaining accurate voter rolls as required by federal law,” they wrote in a letter to the NYSBOE earlier this week that was obtained by Fox News Digital.

If the board does not meet their May 2026 deadline, RITE and Tenney say they are prepared to go to federal court to enforce compliance with federal law.

The watchdog alleges two errors in New York State’s voter registration forms that violate the Help America Vote Act (HAVA).

First, New York State did not instruct individuals that they must provide their driver’s license information if they have one. It also continued registering individuals who did not provide a driver’s license, the last four digits of their Social Security number or a declaration that the applicant has neither, as required by federal law.

These errors have, in part, led to millions of New York voters providing incomplete information during the registration process, making it more difficult for the state to accurately maintain voter lists, according to RITE.

RITE and and Tenney also allege the board did not perform a requested audit to identify how many incomplete voter registration applications have been processed.

A 2022 report from the conservative Public Interest Legal Foundation found that at least 3.1 million New York registered voters have not provided a driver’s license or Social Security number on their application form.

“The law is clear: states may not accept registration forms that lack required identifying information,” RITE President Justin Riemer said in a statement. New York’s own regulations direct officials to do exactly that. This flagrant violation of an important federal safeguard significantly erodes the integrity of New York’s voter registration system.

“We are committed to getting answers about the breadth of the problem and ensuring the state fixes it,” Riemer added.

Tenney, who is chair of the Election Integrity Caucus, said she has called for an investigation into the NYSBOE since 2022.

“Transparency and accurate voter rolls are essential to maintaining public trust in our elections,” the New York Republican said in a statement. “The people of New York deserve answers, accountability, and full compliance with HAVA to ensure the integrity of every vote.”

The New York City Board of Elections system has also come under recent scrutiny for failing to enact adequate safeguards.

One of its employees declined to block a reporter who was posing as a noncitizen from attempting to register to vote, according to video footage obtained by Fox News Digital in February.

Fox News Digital reached out to the New York State Board of Elections for comment.
