Records reveal Ian Roberts claimed citizenship on Maryland voting application

Published



Maryland election officials have released unredacted voter registration documents showing that Ian Andre Roberts, an illegal immigrant who rose to become superintendent of Iowa’s largest school district, claimed to be a U.S. citizen when he registered to vote in Prince George’s County.

The disclosure came only after two conservative watchdog groups, Restoring Integrity and Trust in Elections and the American Accountability Foundation, threatened legal action. The county initially turned over heavily redacted records that concealed Roberts’s answer to the citizenship question, his sex, date of birth, and other information that federal law requires to be made publicly available.
