Democrats in Massachusetts Look to Give Voting Rights to Foreign Nationals |
2023-07-14 |
They keep trying to do that. A series of bills filed by Democrat politicians in the Massachusetts House and Senate would open municipal voting rights to foreign nationals living in the state on green cards. Thereby nullifying the difference between a citizen and a resident. In practice, the policy would mean foreign nationals could cast deciding votes in Massachusetts towns and cities for mayor, school committee, city council, town council, board of selectmen, select board elections, school committee referendums, local ballot referendums, or other municipal races. The assumption being that the non-citizen residents would be more likely to be Social Democrats, Socialists, Commies, or Fascists. The bills, all of which must go before House and Senate committees on election laws, are being sponsored by Democrat politicians like James Eldridge, Samantha Montaño, and Mike Connolly. I thought these had all been struck down in the courts, but I guess this is more poop flung against the wall to see if it’ll stick. "Im My Spanish is pretty rusty, but shouldn't that be "Vota aqui?" My Vietnamese is even rustier but shouldn't that be "Bau cu day?" with the appropriate diacritical marks? I don't think TAIJ is an appropriate replacement for OWR which would be omitted colloquially used in that sense, and all the signs I recall referencing voting used "BAAUF CUWR." I could be wrong that. It's been fifty plus years. (Sorry for the tech transliteration. I don't think I have a Vietnamese font.) Well, by garlic. Found an example they coulda plagiarized in a minute or less. Trung tam = "Center." The trung by itself means "in" or "inside." Bau cu is "vote," just as I remembered except for the tone mark. Chinh thuc is "Official." So there, Taxachussetts. Elsewhere in New England, particularly Connecticut and Rhode Island, Democrat politicians have tried desperately to get legislation across the finish line this year that would not only give legal im I doubt that appeals very much to South Vietnamese, who're here legally. |

#5 IMHO, this serves to highlight the difference. Citizens have pledged themselves to the US Constitution which is problematic to Powers That Be, whereas the migrants are just here for the boodle, thank you very much. Helps to clarify target groups. |

#4 If they let non-citizens vote in federal elections their Congressional representatives should not be seated and their delegates to the Electoral College should not be allowed to vote. |

#1 These assholes already gave illegals driver's licenses a few months ago, so this was the next 'logical' step. |
