The illegal immigrant population has more than quintupled in key swing states since 2021, fueling concerns that mass immigration could impact the outcome of the November elections.

A MarketWatch report detailed the estimated increase in the illegal immigrant population in the seven battleground states that will help decide the outcome of the presidential election between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. The drastic surge in the illegal immigrant populations of key battleground states has added to concerns that the Democratic Party is using mass immigration to achieve political power, as recent immigrants vote overwhelmingly for Democrats.

Michigan, which carries 15 Electoral College votes, saw a 775 percent increase in its illegal immigrant population. President Joe Biden beat Trump in the midwest state in 2020 by roughly 150,000 votes, Trump won it in 2016 by just over 11,000 votes. Arizona saw a 734 percent increase in the number of illegal immigrants residing in the state, while Nevada experienced a jump of 562 percent. Biden beat Trump in Arizona by less than 11,000 votes.

Wisconsin, Georgia, and North Carolina saw increases in their illegal immigrant populations of 467, 401, and 446 percent, respectively. Pennsylvania, worth 19 electoral votes, witnessed a 241 percent increase in their illegal immigrant population.

The Daily Wire revealed that a network of non-profit organizations funded by leftist mega donor George Soros is working to “sway the outcome” of national and state elections by naturalizing new citizens and leveraging them as a new voter bloc. One of the organizations behind the effort maintains demographic reports of key swing states, highlighting the impact that mass immigration could have on battleground states like Arizona and Georgia.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk warned that mass immigration could lead to “permanent one party rule” under the Democrats, who he says are doing “deliberate voter importation to swing states & fast tracking them to citizenship.”

“The only question is when (not if) enough migrants can vote to flip all swing states,” the billionaire wrote, highlighting how that 1986 amnesty turned California blue. “Unless Trump wins and reverses this scam, 2024 is the last election in America,” Musk added.

America First Legal is suing all 15 counties in Arizona for their alleged failure to remove illegal immigrants from their voter rolls.

“Every county in AZ is flagrantly defying its duty under state law to expunge illegal voters,” the group claims.

A recent Heritage Foundation investigation indicates that concerns over illegal immigrant voting in Arizona could be justified. Undercover video shows several self-proclaimed non-citizens at a Phoenix apartment complex saying that they are registered to vote, with some explaining that they plan to vote for Harris.
