States with no effective voter ID requirement average nearly 8x more welfare benefits to illegal immigrants compared to states requiring voter ID verification.

States with no effective voter ID requirement average nearly 8x more welfare benefits to illegal immigrants compared to states requiring voter ID verification.

When I saw those numbers, I asked my leftist AI to verify this. Below are the results.

“States with no effective voter ID requirement offer 7.7x more welfare benefits to illegal immigrants on average compared to states requiring ID verification (1.7 vs 0.2 out of 4).”

So:

  • Yes, there is an analysis that explicitly finds ~7.7× (≈ “nearly 8×”).
  • It’s based on the author’s coding of:
    • Voter ID regimes by state, and
    • State-funded benefit categories for illegal immigrants (healthcare, food, cash, etc.).
    • Shocking.
