Voters are engulfed in fears that ballot cheating will affect the 2024 presidential election, especially in the six battleground states where the contest will be decided in November.
Some 62% of likely voters told Rassmussen Reports/Heartland Institute that they are concerned about cheating based on what they saw in the 2020 elections and their own experiences of receiving improper ballot information in the mail.
What's more, the survey details shared with Secrets showed that non-citizens have voted and plan to vote again despite being barred from the polls.
It is unusual for a polling outfit to ask if likely voters are legal citizens. In its analysis, Rasmussen said that nationally, “more than five percent (5%) say they are not U.S. citizens and a little less than four percent (4%) are not sure if they’re citizens or not.”
Added together, that 9% translates into nearly 14 million votes.
Rasmussen’s survey done with the Heartland Institute was unusually large. It had a sample of 2,466 U.S. likely voters, and 5,605 in the six battleground states.
Rasmussen pollster Mark Mitchell said that he has just begun to ask if voters are citizens or not. Non-citizens are not legally allowed to vote in federal elections.
With the answers he received, Mitchell said the Rasmussen-Heartland poll is the first to show evidence of the potential for massive illegal voting . "We've seen multiple polls that indicate illegal voting issues, but this is the first poll where we've captured illegal aliens telling us that they're voting," he said.
“I'm not accusing 14 million people of illegally voting. I'm saying where there's smoke, there's fire. Somebody should check it out,” he told Secrets.
Mitchell added, “I'm continuously surprised at the lack of curiosity in the polling industry because this is a real signal that I challenge other people to attempt to replicate. It implies that over potentially 14 million people illegally voting in the election.”
Several surveys have shown that the public believes cheating happens in elections. After the 2020 presidential election, Trump’s team charged several states with voting fraud but those charges were generally dismissed.
In the survey, majorities said that they have received multiple ballots in the mail and many addressed to people who don’t live at their address.
Eighteen percent say that in the 2020 election they personally received more than one official ballot in the mail or received a ballot for someone who does not live at their address, while 74% did not. The number of people who said they got multiple mail-in ballots in 2020 was higher at 20% in the six battleground states.

“The fact that more than 60% of likely voters are concerned about election integrity should be a massive wake-up call to all those who refuse to admit that potential cheating in elections is a major problem,” said Chris Talgo, editorial director of the Heartland Institute.
“As the 2020 election demonstrated, mass mailing of ballots based on outdated voter rolls, ballot harvesting, unattended drop boxes, and no excuse mail-in voting has made it easier than ever for those who are committed to breaking the law and illegally voting. The fact that nearly one-in-five likely voters received multiple ballots before the 2020 election cements the case for the urgent need for election integrity reform measures across the states,” Talgo added.
