A lawful permanent resident from Australia was arrested after she allegedly illegally voted in federal elections in Louisiana, according to officials.
Denise Nataly Migliore, 51, was charged in a four-count indictment last month with making false statements in order to register to vote and illegal voting in an election, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Louisiana said.
In October 2022 and October 2024, she knowingly made false claims about her U.S. citizenship to register to vote in a federal election, prosecutors said.

In November of each of those years, she allegedly cast ballots after falsely certifying that she was a U.S. citizen and eligible to vote.
Migliore was ineligible to vote because she was not a U.S. citizen.
On July 1, Homeland Security Investigations arrested Migliore at the federal courthouse in New Orleans following an investigation by Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

“This alien from Australia now faces federal charges for falsely claiming to be a U.S. citizen and illegally casting ballots in two elections,” Acting Assistant DHS Secretary of Public Affairs Lauren Bis said in a statement. “Her arrest and charges are the result of the hard work of the men and women of ICE law enforcement and our federal partners.”
“Our message to aliens who vote in American elections is clear: we will find you, arrest you, and you will face the consequences, including criminal charges and deportation. Only Americans should be electing American leaders,” she continued.
