Illegally entering my country to live off the taxpayers is illegal also. I don’t think the freeloaders really GAS about the gringos’ voting laws. We’re just a big bunch of morons to them. Remember, “Today we march, tomorrow we vote!” - Jose

Reading the title, I think the AP is saying it’s illegal for the GOP to talk about illegals voting. At least that’s what they want it to be.

Another incomprehensible Twitchy article that is nothing but a bunch of social media quotes patched together and passed off as journalism.

The progression:

Step 1: That is a conspiracy theory. You are crazy for thinking it.

Step 2: That is extremely rare. You are trying to score political points over nothing.

Step 3: That is quite common. You are racist for noticing and being concerned.

Step 4: That is universal, and it’s a good thing.

On Illegal Alien voting, we are transitioning from Step 3 to Step 4.

Remember the catcalls “count all the votes”, “the GOP is suppressing votes”… all efforts to include illegal ballots. Dems know it’s the most ballots that win, not the most votes.

AP is gaslighting the public by essentially saying that liberals are “pissing on someone’s shoe, looking them in The face, and telling them “We are not passing on your shoe”

DEMOCRAT DEMOCRACY

You just have to check a box claiming you are a citizen?

18 U.S. Code § 611 (c)(3) is a loophole big enough to win Biden the election.

18 U.S. Code § 611 - Voting by aliens

(a) It shall be unlawful for any alien to vote in any election held solely or in part for the purpose of electing a candidate for the office of President, Vice President, Presidential elector, Member of the Senate, Member of the House of Representatives, Delegate from the District of Columbia, or Resident Commissioner, unless—

(c)(3) Subsection (a) does not apply to an alien if the alien “reasonably” believed at the time of voting in violation of such subsection (a) that he or she was a citizen of the United States

Let's use the Jan 2025 Joint Session as it was intended to be used and Pelosi feared it would be used.

It is a violation of federal statutes for noncitizens to vote for federal offices and Congress has the power to easily enforce that law at the January Joint Session following each presidential election.

Let's remind our congressmen to enforce the law. Everyone is welcome to use my tagline!

Not “even though” it’s illegal. “BECAUSE” it’s illegal.

From the article -
>We know that at least California and Minnesota will issue driver's licenses to illegal aliens.

That is the right of the State, but the Congress has the means at its Joint Session to not accept the results of any unlawful election to federal offices.

So long as such states make no effort to reasonably prohibit those noncitizen voters from voting for federal office the Congress can reject out of hand the results of any election.

See #30 above.

If one carefully reads the entire statute, § 611 does not allow noncitizens to vote; there is no ambiguity, no loophole.

One can’t prove it because one is denied access to records, like immigration lists, green card holders, jury excusals, etc., but illegal aliens (and legal aliens) vote in large numbers.

In a decade, Virginia changed from solid red in 2004 to permanent blue by 2014 because of alien voting.

In Northern Virginia, where like Philadelphia, Chicago, Atlanta, LA, NYC, the democrats are in total control and run the registrars’ offices, the huge populations of illegal aliens and green card non-citizens have been registered by democrat operatives and their allies, like the SEIU.

And they vote more often by absentee or harvested balloting or mail in or early voting where they will never be confronted by poll watchers. Often, democrat operatives will do the voting for them and put the ballots in drop boxes.

Fraud is minimal on Election Day or in recounts, because the fraud takes place during the registration process. Once you are registered, you are home free. You can be illegal or green card or voting elsewhere or dead and no one will ever question it.

The once solid red Atlanta suburbs who gave us Newt Gingrich suddenly and flipped after 2012 and I am suspicious.

Doesn’t AZ have separate ballots for federal elections because a judge told them they have to allow non-citizens to vote in federal elections?

Exactly.

That is why fraud cannot be effectively corrected on a vote-by-vote or individual voter basis.

The Congress has to realize and declare whether a state's entire election process, including its registration of voters, was in violation of federal laws. If so, the entire results of such an election must be ignored; and the time for that is at the JS.

This January 2025 will be a reality check for our congressmen and our nation - it will be quite easy to declare whether a U.S. federal election was lawful or not.

It’s illegal for “illegal aliens” to be in the US, hence the name.

What sort of idiots think they would refrain from voting illegally? Oh...Democrats.

What a doubke-standarded hypocritical headline!! “Gun violence” is a perennial talking point of the left, “even though it is illegal”, yet the gaslight media never calls this out in this way.

Despicable partisan hacks masquerading as journalists.

Step 5: you need to be sent to a reeducation camp for objecting.
