House leaders are sending lawmakers home for the August recess after one of the rockiest sessions in recent memory to campaign for reelection. For those trying to stay in office, it's not always an easy sell. Voters will decide this fall which party to put in power in Congress for the remainder of President Donald Trump’s term in the White House. Republicans argue they should remain in power to deliver on Trump's priorities. Democrats say Trump and the Republicans in charge have done little to lower costs for Americans.

New Jersey's governor says about 6,600 people who indicated they were noncitizens were nonetheless registered to vote in the state because of a Motor Vehicle Commission system error. Democratic Gov. Mikie Sherrill announced the problem Tuesday. Sherrill says that from June 2023 to June 2024, before she was in office, people who indicated they were not U.S. citizens on a voter registration keypad were registered to vote anyway. Sherrill says fewer than 400 of those people ended up casting ballots. The revelation comes as President Donald Trump and other Republicans continue to claim that voting by noncitizens is rampant in U.S. elections, even though the problem is rare.
