Should Legal Noncitizens Have the Right to Vote?
Yes -- If they pay taxes and can serve in the military, it's only fair that they also be allowed to vote on local issues.
Yes, but... -- Only in state and local elections. The right to vote in a national election should be reserved for citizens of the United States of America.
No -- Voting is a citizen's right. If they want it, then let them first become citizens.

Obama sez only 2.4% of the respondants understood the question.....They just need to do a better job of communicating...
Only citizens have the right to vote... any other opinion or outcome and this entire experiment is moot.
LLS
Of course not. Here’s another thing: my CA ballot is in English and Spanish. It’s actually hard for me to make out the English part. American ballots should be for literate English speaking citizens only.
This poll is gonna crash the FOX server.
Freeped.
The right to vote is the primary difference between a citizen and a non-citizen.
I suppose most of the dead that vote in Chicago were at least citizens at one time/sarc
voted NO!!! still 97.29% ?
