There's always been misrepresentation, fraud and other issues. It's usually been just minor, insignificant numbers, or ... a county here, a county there. The problem is ... we have a lot more entities getting caught not checking citizenship, let alone some even telling otherwise.
And most states previously did not allow non-citizens to vote in local/state elections. Now they do. So they have to ensure they only give a local/state ballot, and not federal as well. It's far more prevalent now. How much? Well ... we're only now starting to get numbers.
But it's no longer just 3-4 figures. It's become significant to care in even red states. No idea what's going on in blue.
