So how many of them voted for Democrats?

(Columbus) – Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose announced today that he
has formally referred evidence of non-citizen voter registrations to Ohio
Attorney General Dave Yost for further review and potential prosecution.
“I’m duty-bound to make sure people who haven’t yet earned citizenship in
this country do not vote in our elections,” said Secretary LaRose. “We’ve
so far identified 597 individuals who’ve registered to vote in Ohio despite
not being citizens of the United States, as our state constitution
requires. The evidence includes 138 individuals who appear to have cast a
ballot in an Ohio election during the time state and federal records show
they lacked citizenship status. The law requires me to refer these
individuals to the attorney general, and that’s what we’re doing today.”
Earlier this year, Secretary LaRose launched a comprehensive audit of
Ohio’s voter registration database, resulting in the removal of 154,995
registrations confirmed to be abandoned and inactive for at least four
consecutive years.
