San Francisco considers opening up local elections to newcomers.

“Look at illegal immigrants voting all over the country,” Donald Trump recently claimed in a Fox News interview, part of his ongoing effort to cast doubt on the integrity of the presidential election. There’s no evidence to support the Republican nominee’s claims of election fraud, but some cities are moving to expand voting rights to include noncitizens.

Immigrants go thru a process before Citizenship, landed immigrant is the first step. Not sure what it is called in the US.
Thing is they are productive, working, pay all taxes and are excluded from a municipal election that affects them

All immigrants should be productive and working and paying taxes or else get deported.

That is a separate issue from elections, until they are citizens here their stay is at the discretion of the immigration officials. They have no permanence and should therefore not be voting in elections for citizens who have a non forfeitable right to live in that country

Where can I observe this behavior?





At the moment, I'm blinded by people posting whatever Donald Trump commands them to post.

School Board Elections, since as it is they have children in those schools and most pay property taxes.

You cannot observe it, it is in their mind.

Paying property taxes does not entitle you to vote. You can own property in all 50 states and only vote in one. A non citizen can vote in their native countries. Not here

Stop pretending you even care about the crookedness, that is going on in America.

I don't know what people you are talking about, who are following the commands of Trump.

Start with Wisconsin, the state where you told me voter suppression was rampant. Scott Foval would disagree with you, as he's on tape admitting to bringing in illegal voters by the bus load.

Nope. No elections for any unit of government. They are not permanently vested. They can be sent home tommorow. Your stay I this country as a non citizen (with the exception of American Samoans) is at will, it can be terminated at any time

The communities' choice.
 
Citizenship is an antiquated concept anyway. Time to get rid of it.
