The question is,
Do illegal immigrants and the presence of nearly 50 million non US individuals living in the US help the Democratic Socialists or the Republicans when elections are taken into consideration?
This isn't a whataboutism, it's an honest question to see how Democratic Socialists view mass immigration, whether it helps the Democratic Socialists achieve their political goals or hurts the cause.
Up vote if you think mass illegal immigration and having 50 million non US individuals in the US helps the Democratic Socialist party.
Down vote if you don't think it helps.
If you have some commentary that helps explain your position.....let'r rip.

Arguments for a Democratic Political Advantage
Congressional Apportionment and Electoral College: U.S. House seats (and thus Electoral College votes) are apportioned based on a total headcount of all residents, including non-citizens, not just eligible voters. Because a majority of immigrants (legal and illegal) tend to reside in Democratic-leaning states and congressional districts, some analyses argue this shifts political power and federal resources to those areas. A 2024 report submitted to Congress estimated that the cumulative effect of all immigration resulted in a net gain of 14 House seats for "blue states" in the 2020 census, giving those states an electoral advantage.
Shifting Demographics and Voter Base: Democrats broadly favor pathways to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, a stance that resonates with the immigrant communities themselves and their advocates. While non-citizens cannot vote in federal elections, a path to legal status and eventual citizenship could expand the future Democratic voter base.

Public opinion?
I suppose it could be bad in the public's eyes that you want your nation invaded by mass illegal immigration. Although, right now I would say that isn't necessarily true because it doesn't really seem to be hurting the Democratic Socialists.
I also noticed of the 3 down voters not one wanted to explain their position.
