At the link, there are no quotes around ‘upheld’.

But there are in the article here at freerepublic.

Weird.

As my tagline says, we MUST stop the non-citizen voting.

There could be millions of aliens in Florida and other states who hate America, want us overthrown, want whites killed, hate cops, and demand full lifetime guaranteed welfare and Section 8 housing and dental and medical care free. And they vote (several times each).

WAKE UP and fight this! Our LAST chance. We will be the minority shortly.
