From the New York Times article New York Moves to Allow 800,000 Noncitizens to Vote in Local Elections New York City will become the largest municipality in the country to allow legal residents to vote if the legislation is approved as expected in December. By Jeffery C. Mays and Annie Correal Nov. 23, 2021 For decades, lawmakers and immigrant advocates in New York City have pushed for legislation that would allow legal residents who are not citizens to vote in municipal elections, a right they had in school board elections until the boards were abolished in the early 2000s. The "Race Hustles" ALWAYS use Race to get their agenda thru FEAR! THAT IS WHY THEY ARE SO AGAINST VOTER ID Now city lawmakers are moving to make noncitizen voting a reality — over the objections of Mayor Bill de Blasio. The City Council is planning to approve a bill that would allow more than 800,000 noncitizen New Yorkers to register as members of political parties and vote in municipal elections, provided they are green card holders or have the right to work in the United States. The measure is expected to be approved on Dec. 9 by a veto-proof margin. It would allow noncitizens to vote in local elections, and would not apply to federal or state contests. But the measure raises longstanding questions about who should be allowed to participate in the country’s democratic process.
