The Legislature in Austin is attempting to pass a resolution which would impose a statewide rule and PRECLUDE local jurisdictions from deciding for themselves whether to allow non-citizens to vote in local elections.

(that is) the very POINT of this thread.
No it isn't.
Good Lord, here is the text of the damned Bill.
quote:

The following classes of persons shall not be allowed to vote in this State: ... persons who are not citizens of the United States

Do you disagree with the founding premise that the government which governs best is that which is closest to the people?
They are ILLEGAL
Where do you GET this stuff? Did you READ the damned Bill? It is decidedly-not limited to illegal residents.

When illegals are allowed to vote, it mitigates the impact of the actual citizenry. As such, the citizenry is disenfranchised. How can you be such a fricking tool?

You imbecile. You devalue local elections? Why should a “local” vote be open to any Tom, Dick or Harry but a “national” vote is limited to citizens?

Logic is a fine tool...buy yourself a set.

What is the basis for your premise that this description applies to legal residents?


Easy; Democrats support it.

No fool.. I hate illegals who can vote themselves our tax dollars for whatever they have the numbers to push through. How dense do you have to be to support this shite.
