Vermont Republican Governor Seeks to Give Non-Citizens Voting Rights in Local Elections

[BREITBART] Vermont Gov. Phil Scott (R) is asking state lawmakers to pass an elections law that would allow non-citizens across the state to vote in local municipality elections.

Scott vetoed two pieces of legislation that sought to give non-citizens the right to vote in local elections in Montpelier and Winooski, Vermont. However, he said he is not opposed to the plan but wants state legislatures to send him a bill that would give non-citizens the right to vote, statewide, in local elections.

“This is an important policy discussion that deserves further consideration and debate,” Scott wrote in his vetoes.

#4 What a bunch of nonsense coming from the governor. So if the Federal government allows anyone to flood into the U.S., they can be relocated wherever they are needed to sway an election. With "proper" incentives (e.g. buying of votes or threats to be returned from wherever they came or bribes), they can be encouraged to vote for the "proper" candidate or issue. What's to keep them from voting in non-local elections? Voting is a right of free citizens.

#5 How about 'they can't vote but can be elected to office to include this one'?

#6 The Chinese are going to start boating people over with all their plastic junk. It would only take ~100 million a few months before Election Day to select the GIVERnment they want with out ‘buying’ it as they do today.

#7 This only - supposedly - applies to local elections, and the local jurisdiction has the power to determine who votes in that jurisdiction (as long as it does not violate US civil rights laws.)
