The Alaska Court of Appeals is deciding whether to dismiss felony voter misconduct charges against Tupe Smith, an Alaska resident born in American Samoa.

Ten Alaska residents pleaded not guilty to voter misconduct or other charges.

A criminal case in Alaska involving nearly a dozen people born in American Samoa is highlighting concerns about birthright citizenship and voting by people who are not U.S. citizens, issues that have been prominent in the early months of President Donald Trump’s second term.
