Non-citizen says he voted in '22 election in Toms River [View all]

An Ocean County man who is not a U.S. citizen admitted in federal court to illegally voting in the 2022 midterm election, U.S. Attorney Robert Frazer announced.

Eliezer Kadoch, 39, of Toms River, pleaded guilty Wednesday before U.S. Magistrate Judge J. Brandon Day in Trenton to one count of voting by an alien in a federal election.

Court records show that Kadoch is a citizen of France and has never been a citizen of the United States. Despite being ineligible to vote, prosecutors said he cast a ballot in the November 2022 general election, which included the election of a U.S. House representative.

Federal law prohibits non-citizens from voting in federal elections.
