Heritage Foundation NPOV issue

The addition of the Heritage Foundation link raises an NPOV issue. It presents the 1100+ cases as a "sampling" when it appears to be a substantially complete list of such cases, and additionally, it fails to make clear that this covers a range of years.

The Ballotpedia link that's provided includes a link to the Heritage Foundation report and provides the needed context to put the Heritage report in perspective. Fabrickator (talk) 23:18, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'd be okay with removing it, especially since this is not a US-centric article, and since Ballotpedia contains that link alongside other links. JSwift49 18:20, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This section appears WP:UNDUE until it has the verified final number of non-citizen voters Superb Owl (talk) 22:59, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
