The same people that lost their minds over the possiblity of non-Americans interfering in 2016.
The same people that will tell you that the great replacement is not a thing.
there's a long and contentious history here...but non-citizen workers, of which there are many, pay
taxes...they help the local community with their work and tax contributions...should they be taxed "Without Representation"?...

Are you talking about people who are here illegally?
I just want to be clear.
- Are you advocating that people who have broken the law and crossed the border illegally be allowed to vote in US elections?
- Are you advocating that people with temporary visas who are supposed to return to their country of origin be allowed to vote in US elections.
- Are you advocating that Chinese and Russian tourists be allowed to vote in US elections?
- If none of the above, what are you advocating for?
It wouldn't hurt you to do a little research once in awhile...
btw, I'm not favor of granting non-documented aliens voting...now, back to non-citizens voting in local elections...do you understand the rationale?

What part of my questions required more research?
I asked YOU questions. What exactly didn't I research that I should have researched before asking you questions?
It is revealing that you run away from answering simple questions.

Are you going to contribute to the discussion or simply snipe from the sidelines, Ned...(rhetorical)
(no message)
You just proved Ned’s point.

Yes, because your contributions have been stellar thus far.
You made a statement that made zero sense and then posted a link that is redundant to the original post. Well done, Ty, you're still the absolute worst.
How about focusing on the content of those links?…personal jabs accomplish nothing…
Read the Pro’s and Con’s for the legal non-citizens…do you see any justification for allowing them to vote in local elections?
No I don't.
I'm still waiting for you to tell.me exact what you meant when you said I needed to do research and I'm curious to know what part of my post prompted you to think I hadn't done my research.
How about you acknowledge that you posted an unwarranted personal attack by suggesting I was uninformed and then tried to lecture me on personal attacks? How about you don't be such a fucking hypocrite?
You didn't read the document I provided in my original post, had you done so you'd know that
there are more than a few localities in different states that allow non-citizen voting...plus, every ballot in those localities requires REGISTRATION, which means the non-citizens are DOCUMENTED and therefore NOT HERE ILLEGALLY...am I making myself clear? Had you done your research, you wouldn't have had to make your useless post.
Stop being so quick to anger and spend your time instead investigating, researching and thinking...can you do that?...have you any interest in doing that?
Now, with that said, take a moment and focus on the content of that link of mine which has Pros and Cons...take a look at the Pros and see if they make sense to you...for me, I don't like taking people's tax money and not giving them any say in how it's used, especially when I've already invited them and their families to live here and need their labor...and believe me...we NEED their labor.
That's immaterial.
I knew it is allowed in certain places. I didn't need to know that noncitizen voting was allowed anywhere to ask those questions.
"...every ballot in those localities requires REGISTRATION, which means the non-citizens are DOCUMENTED and therefore NOT HERE ILLEGALLY." People on tourist and temporary work visas are documented, but you didn't answer my question about them. And I still don't know YOUR OPINION on illegal immigrants...let's keep in mind that liberals oppose voter ID.
I just can't believe stupid you are.
While I'm not supportive of suffrage for illegal aliens, I am supportive of improvements to our
current immigration laws that will make it easier and quicker for such people to achieve legal, non-citizen status...i.e. more $$ for judges, attorneys, etc. that will allow non-criminal, working residents to be evaluated for continued residency in the U.S....once that is established, then I'd like them to be able to vote in LOCAL elections, like the ones mentioned in the document I provided.
Does that help you?
Yes. You somehow have a normal opinion in this one.

Nope, you would be completely wrong, and at odds with vast majorirty
of US citizens. Which is not at all surprising, since most of your pet projects are off the wall shit
Not to discount your flowery language, there are good reasons for allowing suffrage for non-
citizens in local elections.
btw, this country flat out needs MORE workers...if the GOP can spare a moment and help develop a comprehensive immigration plan, we can make real progress. Note that our SS/Medicare issues stem from not enough younger workers paying into the system (retiring 'Boomers')...we can't wait and hope for a much larger birth rate (hold the abortion quips ;-))...it makes perfect sense to bring in those workers...it's all good.
btw, I come in contact with a fair number of non-citizen workers...they're good family people...they work hard and pay taxes...their kids go to public schools...they deserve a voice in how things are run.
Yr bullshit is weak, save for yr homies. Real
Americans aren't having it
Biden’s World.

You don’t know how voting works. Those illegals have the right to vote in the
Country they snuck into. I mean, we’re giving them a whole bunch of free shit, what’s voting really matter on top of it?
