Overview
- Prince George’s County provided the records to Restoring Integrity and Trust in Elections and the American Accountability Foundation after initially issuing heavily redacted documents.
- The unredacted application shows Ian Andre Roberts checked “Yes” to the question “Are you a U.S. citizen?” according to records reviewed by the groups and news outlets.
- Maryland election officials say Roberts was registered in the state but did not vote.
- RITE argues the case underscores why the NVRA’s public disclosure mandate matters, highlighting weak safeguards in Maryland’s registration process.
- Election-integrity advocates renewed calls for Maryland to adopt USCIS’s SAVE verification system, while Roberts remains in federal prosecution following his September ICE arrest and firearms charge.
