Big Apple Fights to Keep Letting Non-Citizens Vote
Perhaps in five years, or 10, Americans will look back on the period from 2020 to 2024 the same way we look at the Salem witch trials of the 1690s. “How could they have been so nuts?” we might ask. During the Biden presidency, all manner of irrational and frankly insane practices became “new normal.”
Sterilizing children with puberty blockers and telling boys that, yes, they are girls born in the wrong body, became “normal.” Allowing rioters with Black Lives Matter and Antifa to torch government buildings and shut down cities causing billions of dollars in damage (with no prosecution) became “normal.”
Guess what else has become normal? In the Big Apple it’s letting people who are not citizens vote. But it’s not just that, which is mental enough. The state is actually fighting in court to keep allowing it. A New York City law went on the books in 2022 that would allow so-called “documented non-citizens” to vote in city elections. It is important to note that the law does not allow illegal aliens to vote. But in practice, it’s obvious that illegals would be waved through without much checking, and it’s highly likely that they’re already doing so. A city that thinks it’s normal and reasonable to let foreign nationals vote in a U.S. city isn’t motivated to check papers carefully.
And quite obviously, they’re motivated not to check carefully. The Democrats have been pushing for “non-citizen voting,” and they’ve objected to securing the country’s borders, because they want votes from all the non-U.S. people pouring in. We don’t need to do some deep investigation to prove this. The census that occurs every 10 years counts everyone in the U.S., including illegal foreigners. That total number is used for “apportionment,” which is the process of redrawing Congressional districts to reflect changes in population. The Census Bureau is very upfront about this.
It’s easy to see why New York is fighting in court to keep its non-citizen voting ordinance in effect. According to Politico, 800,000 to 1 million non-U.S.-citizen New Yorkers would suddenly have the right to vote in city elections. What Democrat could resist?
Elon Musk highlighted the problem with a clip from Fox News. Anchor Brian Kilmeade seemed stunned that the issue was even in question.
Musk himself is an immigrant, but he’s a legal immigrant, and he has no love for those who sneak through the border evading the legal process. Reactions to his post on X/Twitter are pretty much what you would expect; Americans are outraged at the electoral shenanigans leftists have pulled right out in the open for years.
This user points out how everyone really knew all along what was happening, but no one who objected was taken seriously.
Devon probably speaks for most of us.
