Dc City Council approves bill for non citizens to vote

[ColonelAngus]

How can non citizens vote? It makes no sense.

Then what is a citizen?

DC Council moves forward with non-citizen voting bill

If this bill passes it would allow non-citizens to vote in D.C. elections, including undocumented immigrants.

Interesting. Is this Constitutional?

The democrats are constantly trying to push the boundaries of constitutionality and citizenship for the sole purpose of getting more democrat voters. They fervently believe that what's good for the DP is also good for the country, and they don't give a shit about legalities or future consequences. Or maybe they have convinced themselves that it's all for the best and therefore principles and scruples don't matter.

They have been infiltrated by communists and are intentionally destroying the country.

Including, but not limited to, pushing said boundaries beyond the confines of human lifespan.

The bill would give all non-citizens the opportunity to vote in local city elections. That includes races for D.C. Mayor, chairman or member of the council, attorney general, board of education, ANC, and any initiative, referendum recall or charter referendum.

So, the bill allows non citizens, not necessarily illegals to vote in city elections, school board, local referendums
They live in the city, pay taxes, send their kids to local schools

Why shouldn’t they vote on how their tax dollars are spent?

Why shouldn’t they vote on how their tax dollars are spent?

Uhhhh, because they are not members of our country????

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

I don't really think they can do that.

New York City’s Noncitizen Voting Law Is Struck Down

A State Supreme Court judge from Staten Island said the measure, which would have allowed more than 800,000 noncitizens to vote, violated the State Constitution.

Moonbats have trouble with that one.

They are residents of the city, they pay taxes to that city, their kids attend local schools

They got a dog in the fight

And the fact that some of them are here illegally?

Nobody is offering local voting to illegals, only legal residents

Perhaps you should read the linked article again:
"If this bill passes it would allow non-citizens to vote in D.C. elections, including undocumented immigrants."

Wrong again. Maybe DeSantis can help by sending more potential voters to DC.

Because they are already represented by their home government.

If that passes expect 100% blue votes in every election from now.

If illegals can vote then they can just make up any votes they want and say it was "undocumented immigrants (illegals really)".

Voting is for americans. Americans being people born here by american citizens, or people who go through the immigration process and become citizens.

I dont know if it is or not but I consider this treason if it passes and I am all for what we used to do with people who committed treason.

then tell them to become legal citizens....

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

They are residents of the city, they pay taxes to that city, their kids attend local schools

And they are not Americans.

 

[ColonelAngus]

There should be universal mail in balloting for illegal immigrant holding facilitiies.

If you are not an American citizen then you should not be voting in any US election. Period.
