密歇根大学中国留学生被控在2024年大选中非法投票 检方称其已潜逃上海
美国司法部密歇根东区联邦检察官办公室2025年6月3日宣布，联邦检方已以刑事诉状指控在密歇根州沃什特诺县安娜堡市密歇根大学就读的中国公民 Haoxiang Gao，罪名是虚假声称公民身份以登记或投票，以及外国公民投票。
诉状称，Gao 在2024年总统大选前数日显然持密歇根大学学生证非法登记为选民，并在该校艺术博物馆内的投票点投下选票；诉状还指称，他在选民登记申请与提前投票申请上就公民身份作了不实陈述。此前，州检方已就同一行为对他提出州级指控，州法院准许他以5,000美元个人担保获释，条件包括不得离开密歇根州、并交出护照候审。
检方称，Gao 确曾交出一本护照，但2025年1月19日，也就是华盛顿新政府就职前一天，他弃保潜逃，搭机飞往中国上海。海关与边境保护局记录显示，他在底特律都会机场过安检时使用的中国护照，号码与他交给密歇根大学警方保管的那本不同。2025年5月30日，另一份诉状解封，指控他犯有逃避追诉的联邦罪名。
联邦检察官 Jerome F. Gorgon, Jr. 表示，非法投票是严重罪行，会动摇公众对选举的信任、稀释美国公民的投票分量，检方希望本案指控向包括在美大学就读的外国学生发出明确信号。联邦调查局底特律外勤办公室主管特工 Cheyvoryea Gibson 表示，联邦调查局严肃对待一切选举舞弊指控。本案由联邦调查局调查。检方提醒，刑事诉状只是指控，不构成有罪证据。

Chinese Student at University of Michigan Charged with Illegally Voting in 2024 Election; Prosecutors Say He Fled to Shanghai
On June 3, 2025, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Michigan announced that a criminal complaint had been filed charging Haoxiang Gao, a citizen of China attending the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Washtenaw County, Michigan, with false claims to register or vote and voting by aliens.
According to the complaint, Gao illegally registered to vote in the days before the 2024 presidential election, apparently using his University of Michigan student ID, and then cast a ballot at a polling location at the University of Michigan Museum of Art. The complaint further alleges that he made false statements regarding his citizenship on his voter registration application and his early voting application. After being charged with state offenses, a state court granted Gao a $5,000 personal bond with conditions including that he not leave Michigan and that he surrender his passport.
Prosecutors said Gao did surrender a passport, but on January 19, 2025, the day before the new administration took office in Washington, he jumped bond and fled the country on a flight bound for Shanghai, China. Customs and Border Protection records show that he passed through Detroit Metropolitan Airport security using a Chinese passport bearing a number different from the one he had surrendered to University of Michigan police. On May 30, 2025, a related complaint was unsealed charging him with the federal offense of flight to avoid prosecution.
U.S. Attorney Jerome F. Gorgon, Jr. said illegal voting is a serious crime that casts doubt on elections and disenfranchises U.S. citizens by diluting their power at the ballot box, and that the charges should send a message to foreign nationals, including students at U.S. universities. Cheyvoryea Gibson, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI's Detroit Field Office, said the FBI treats all allegations of voter fraud with the utmost seriousness. The FBI is investigating the case. Prosecutors noted that a complaint is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt.
