This is how they get to their longer term objective. Obamacare is the beginning push to full government run health care. Obama said as much in a speech.
It’s hard to close the door once the horses are out.

The measure would have had no practical effect even if it had passed. Illegal immigrants — and indeed noncitizens as a whole — are not legally able to participate in federal elections.
Then why bring up a vote like this?!

2 Thoughts:
1. This was not a passing bill. This was a No vote majority on a bill introduced by Republicans to "decry illegal voting" in local and state elections. A yes wouldn't have had any legal ramifications. This is part of the tit for tat in congress where pointless bills are introduced in order to record votes for campaign purposes.
2. I am ok with a "No" here. As ridiculous as it is for California or San Francisco to let illegals cancel legal citizens' votes, state and local election laws should not be in the purview of the federal government. This was a win for states rights, even if in this case it is the state's right to be stupid.

Bring on a military coup if that’s what it takes.

They're not even trying to hide it anymore. Next time some FOS Democrat lies thru his or her teeth and falsely claims that Voter ID laws are inherently racist, I hope everybody will laugh in that sorry bastard's face.

I wonder if this could extend to non-residents of a district 
I live in BR but I should be able to vote in NOLA elections!!!

But why? Why should they get to decide on the appropriation of tax dollars they don't pay within a country to which they don't belong?

The Dems have always been in favor of election fraud.

Why is the federal government intervening with local elections? If this isn't an example of federal government overreach then I don't know what is.

It starts at a local level. Then in a few years it’s at the state level and before we know it it’s at the federal level.

this is only for local elections if the locality chooses to allow them to vote. i say leave it up to the locals to decide if they want illegal immigrants deciding their elections (state's rights and all). they should never be allowed to participate in federal elections tho
This is the camel's nose in the tent. It is legitimizing illegal immigration. They should not be here AT ALL, let alone voting in elections (local or not).
This is the first step. Once they start voting, local politicians will start to pander to them more and more. What are you going to do when they elect an illegal immigrant to the US Congress? Someone who will serve in Congress, but can't even vote for themselves?
Eventually, they will call for illegals to vote in federal elections.
Why stop there? Why not just open up our elections to the entire globe? Anybody who bothers to register can vote. Liberals would love that. After all, the United States has a global footprint, and what we do affects people all across the world...
Nonsense.

Conservatives believe the government should secure our borders. You are saying that people who broke the law and breached our borders should be allowed to vote and not be deported. I think securing our borders is not a "big government" position.

Well, this one did. I gathered all that from the article in the OP.
Unless by reporters, you mean posters.

eta: read the article. this is only for local elections, not federal
How does a school district race affect either state races OR "gerrymeandering?" (I am assuming that this term was intended to be funny, and it did elicit a chuckle).
Districts are drawn based upon "all residents," regardless of whether they are voters.
