The backlog of citizenship applications in President Trump's administration could prevent some people from voting in the November election, The Washington Post reported Monday. 

The backlog in U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) could block applicants, who were hoping to cast their first ballots, from voting in the fall. The USCIS has not released the total number of backlogged cases but has reported hundreds of thousands of citizenship applications are pending, according to the Post. 

The latest available data from March 31 found more than 700,000 citizenship applications were pending. The agency has reportedly conducted 156,849 naturalizations since mid-March but more applications still would have been filed in that period, the Post noted.

This comes up every 4 years, you will find many similar threads over the years, so nothing new.

I don't doubt, and yet uscis continues to budget for 20% less than actual every year.
