Last month, Texan authorities rejected a claim by Fox News host Maria Bartiromo that migrants were being registered to vote outside a number of Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) facilities across the state. In Oregon, the nine people who did not confirm their citizenship represent a fraction of the state's 3 million registered voters.

Officials say 10 of those improperly registered went on to vote. They stress the issue will not be a factor in this year’s election.

Oregon elections officials said Monday they had struck over 1,200 people from the state's voter rolls after determining they did not provide proof of U.S. citizenship when they were registered to vote.

On Monday, the Oregon Driver and Motor Vehicle Services Division and the Oregon Secretary of State updated the number of noncitizens erroneously registered to vote in the state to 1,259. The error was first reported earlier this month with the state announcing at least 306 people had been registered to state voter rolls over the last three years.
