Unlike his predecessor, left-wing New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio will not commit to rejecting a bill that would allow non-citizens to vote in city elections.
In January, City Council member Council Daniel Dromm will reportedly introduce legislation that would grant non-citizens voting rights in local elections, hoping that the bill will have a better chance of passing now that former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who opposed the bill, is no longer in office.
The legislation Ive seen so far, I think, has a number of challenges and issues that have to be addressed, so I was not comfortable with the version of the legislation that I saw [in 2013], de Blasio reportedly said on Friday, when asked about the potential bill. But he added that he was "certainly willing to continue the conversation."
According to the New York Post, Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito "said she supports the voting legislation" that had "languished for nearly three years in the council before being shelved amid strong opposition from" Bloomberg.
If the bill passes and is signed into law, more than one million non-citizens may be allowed to vote in local elections.....

You can count on them to vote in state and national elections too!
What is it about the US Constitution you do not understand Mr. De Blow Hard?
This is true vote suppression. They want to nullify the votes of citizens and it’s clearly disenfranchising Americans. This a-hole should be strung up on a lamp pole.

If this happens America is dead.
You know despite a quite limited capacity and understanding for the laws,history and democracy of the United States Of America and it's Constitution, it is not a lack of understanding that discombobulates the mind of il duce blasio of New York, it is his complete lack of respect of the Constitution and the laws of America that drive his path to join his comrade il duce mussolini on the barbed wire of history!
There is no "conversation": just edicts from a mastermind.

I am going to assume that this has to be unconstitutional in the State Constitution.
What a slap in the face to ALL actual citizens of New York!
He’s a goddamned communist running a city populated by communists.
NY is gone.
Anybody who wanted to experience living in the United States as opposed to a marxist hellhole moved out a long time ago.
The western counties are the only ones worth saving.
The rest of the state is gone.
next they’ll elect an illegal immigrant for NYC mayor.
If I was Mayor deLousiest, I’d also abolish personal property. All real estate reverts back to NY State ownership, all cars are strictly banned, and guns? Don’t make me laugh.
Rolled up shirt sleeves are the tip-off.
If there is no border enforcement, and non-citizens can vote, then we don’t really have a country anymore — just occupied territory.
Hey! The New Yorkers got what the voted for.
