Most Texas voters believe people who aren’t U.S. citizens “sometimes” or “frequently” vote in Texas elections, according to the latest University of Texas/Texas Tribune Poll.

At the same time, 45 percent believe people who are eligible to vote in the state’s elections are “sometimes” or “frequently” prevented from doing so, the poll found.

Partisan feelings show through strongly in the results. Among Democrats, 68 percent said noncitizens vote either “never” or “rarely” in Texas elections. Only 16 percent of Republicans agreed. Meanwhile, 76 percent of Republicans believe non-citizens vote sometimes or frequently (including 47 percent who say it is a frequent occurrence) — a view shared by 22 percent of Democrats.

“The erosion of confidence in American elections is really a tragedy,” said Daron Shaw, a government professor at the University of Texas at Austin and co-director of the UT/TT Poll. Looking at the numbers of voters who believe either that noncitizens are voting, or that citizens are being blocked from voting, he added, “There are a lot of people who think there is a lot of stuff going on.”
