True. Do you take the position that citizens who are renters should not vote in school board elections?

Like, um, what could illegals voting in local elections do besides affect school boards?

Oh, I dunno. They could eventually outnumber actual citizens or, at least create a large enough subset to drive TONS of local policies to benefit primarily other illegals.
All entirely reasonable points ... none of which address the question of whether LOCALS should make that call for themselves or rather have it made for them by a distant government in London ... oops, wrong century, I meant DC.

And equating a RESOLUTION to Royal edict.

No HankieLib.

A resolution is the equivalent of the King of England responding the the colonies declaring their independence by issuing a letter saying, "that's a really fricking bad idea".

I quoted a guy who (granted) is quite liberal, who himself was quoting a guy who was NOT known to be a big liberal, as far as I know. The first time I saw it, it was discussed on TexAgs, but it DOES eventually trace back to an op-ed in Daily Kos.

Shorty decided that my reference was all part of some years-long, false-flag subterfuge. He is wrong (and frankly a bit paranoid), but he is entitled to his opinion.

The illegal aliens are not the ones deciding WHETHER to allow illegal alien local residents to vote in local elections. That would be those who are ALREADY voting legally

It is ENTIRELY reasonable to determine that non-citizens’ interests would not justify their participation in federal elections (for example setting foreign policy and military spending).



There is no reason or logic in this statement.

Why does Jorge from Jalisco and Juan from El Paso posses significantly different interests as it pertains to military spending?

You are intentionally ignoring the only significant distinction, and that distinction exists no matter if voting for Senator or Dog Catcher.

Oh pahleez. You spoke for the guy's credibility and admitted to having read a fair amount of his other stuff(all of which is unhinged lefty shite)

Good lord, your dishonesty is astounding.

You are entirely missing the point.

Not once have I asserted that Rogelio SHOULD be voting in EITHER election, though I HAVE asked others to explain why he should NOT.

The POINT that I raise is WHERE the decision as to the breadth of a voting base should be made.

I think it should be made at the level of government for which the election is held. National decision for national elections. State decision for state elections. Local level for local elections.

Keeping governmental decisionmaking at a level as close as possible to the voters has been a hallmark of small government conservatism for as long as I can remember.

I am at a loss to understand how so many posters on this forum now see that concept as “liberal” just because in THIS INSTANCE it is supported by Dems and MAY produce a result that they do not like. I see a complete lack of core principles.

Because it is a right reserved for citizens 18 and over.

No I didn't, you're just pivoting.

I don't have an issue with most of what you said after the above, which is different than what you tried to say previously.

Though if you aren't a citizen at the federal level, you aren't a citizen at the town level. And I believe that should make you ineligible to vote in any election.

Obviously you and your fellow Dems disagree.
