Lol what? How would they vote? You realize you have to register first, right?

I went to school here in south Florida with kids that were here to play baseball and soccer from brazil. In our senior economic class they got paperwork to register to vote in my class. I couldn't believe at the time those kids got the paperwork and was confused as to why the teacher would give it to them.

Sure. So the teacher hands everyone who is 18 the paperwork, and then the state decides who is eligible to vote (aka who is a legal resident).

Here's a question:

What do you guys think about allowing people to vote in multiple local elections? For example, I own land in two seperate counties and feel that I should have a voice in each since I own land in each. Obviously I don't believe this should apply on a federal level (I should only get one vote for president) but I should be allowed to vote for all other elections.

I'd be for it 100 %... While I think you should only be able to cast a vote for president one time. On local votes and such, you should have a say in where you own property.

Napolitano: California To Allow Illegal Immigrants To Vote For The Next President | The Daily Caller

Scary even with photo ID it can still be possible to vote and not be a citizen

Someone else posted this and it's false. The DMV is automatically registering people to vote when they get a license (may have been a license plate, I don't recall). But right wing sites started running horror stories claiming illegals were allowed to vote now. However the law clearly states that "eligible voters" will be registered when they get their license. So felons and illegals are not voting.

Although felons should be able to

Would you say I'm being tricked?

Napolitano believes “the Supreme Court has wrongly said it’s a fundamental right. And once it said that, states like California decided to allow people to vote who aren’t qualified by law to vote because of the fundamental aspect.”

Napolitano argued that while it would be against the law for an illegal immigrant to vote in a federal election, “there’s really no way to monitor it. So if you are an illegal alien in California, get a driver’s license, register to vote, you can vote in local, state, and federal elections in California and those votes count.”

So is this quote just a fabrication or did he say it. They are quoting the judge, if it's a made up quote then shame on myself for not knowing it wasn't what he said.

That's false. Read what I wrote already above. Someone else tried posting this a week ago. It's just scare tactics from the right

I'm amazed a quote so long was completely made up. Did that judge make a statement regarding the false quote he gave? That's pretty inflammatory article. I get the point you are making, I was specifically taking about the judged comments on voting and the Constitution

FALSE: California Passed a Law Allowing Undocumented Immigrants to Vote in Federal Elections : snopes.com

Sounds like he just said it to raise eyebrows and create fear about the law. Because none of it is true

What the f?

The entire idea behind committing a Felony is that one has done something so egregious they forfeit their citizen rights. F them. And no amount of Felony voters is going to increase a democrats chance so it is a moot point.

It's not about your party affiliation. What if president Sanders decides to ban guns. Guess what happens to voters who would be pro gun rights? They don't get a say.

Hey man it happens. I made a mistake, read an article passed to me and took the quotes for what was said. Regardless of the article in hand the point I made previous was it shouldn't be a issue to prove Who you are before you cast a vote. I have to show my license and prove who I am to buy a fishing license, buy a pack of razorblades, drive a car, and yes buy a gun even! Why should it be any different? You want to have a say in who's president provide proper identification

I'd say the vetting process you're looking for is the registration itself. After that though, I wouldn't mind you being asked to give a dob, street address, etc. but I don't see an ID as a nessecity

So? Banning guns doesnt make people who own them felons. Its like slavery. Ban slavery but people who had slaves before can keep them..

Grandfathered in is the term..

When's the last time you registered? Before TN required a photo ID the only thing you had to prove was residency and a utility bill was sufficient.
