Dems Warn ICE Crackdowns Will Make Illegal Immigrants Afraid To Vote

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Democratic lawmakers once again called on the Department of Justice to reign in ICE officers, fearful that mass deportations will make illegals afraid to vote.

"I am afraid that if we don't end these ICE raids soon, illegal aliens will be too afraid to illegally vote in our elections," Senator Chuck Schumer said. "That's why I'm calling on our president to step in and do the right thing by no longer executing the law."

According to sources, undocumented migrants are much less likely to vote as a result of ongoing ICE arrests and may not even bother voting at all if they get deported.

"We have to put a stop to ICE or we're through!" warned Representative Ilhan Omar. "Everyone knows real Americans won't vote for us."

As Democratic lawmakers continue to wrestle with the president over mass deportations, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has already hit the streets to get out the vote among the illegal community well ahead of the midterms.

"Voting in free American elections is not just an American right, but a human right!" the congresswoman said. "It's, like, literally in the Constitution."

At publishing time Democrats took to the streets to protest the deportation of another several thousand of their voters.

Doesn’t matter. Trump says he’s not doing mass deportations, and the voting by illegals—and their anchor babies will continue apace.

Good sarcasm requires an element of truth. In this case, the only thing not really true is Democrats won’t admit it.

In my experience in IL and GA, non-citizens, both legal and illegal, are not the problem.

Non-Citizens are automatically registered to vote when they get a Drivers License. The software is written such that they have to go out of their way and be experts in the software to prevent not being registered.

Vote Harvesters vote on behalf of registered non-citizens just as they do on behalf of the dead, movers, vacant houses, vacant lots.

I hope they nail a whole bunch of them at the gay bunny’s stupor bowl. All ICE will need to do is nail those who are singing along.

I know it’s the Bee, but the Rats already have this covered with mail-in voting.

Vote Harvesters vote on behalf of registered non-citizens just as they do on behalf of the dead, movers, vacant houses, vacant lots.

Illegals recorded on voter logs as having voted can simply say in Spanish it wasn't them that voted, and everyone will believe them. American elections have become a joke.

“Illegals...can simple say”.... Most voters are now registered by MOTOR VOTER and relatively far more legal non-citizens than illegals.

Anti-illegal voices lose credibility when they miss this distinction.

It isn’t only Spanish. I’ve known English only Canadians and German immigrants who speak English whose vote was cast by a IL Dem Precinct Captain aka vote harvester.

But many are Spanish speaking and their vote also was cast by the IL Dem Precinct Captain or an assistant on Democrat patronage.

AI is going make the cost of auditing anything far cheaper, with better quality, and digital receipts of every second of the whole audit process. When something gets cheaper, there is certain to be more of it. Unfortunately, scammers are among the earliest adopters of AI, and plan to stay one step ahead.
