Should California's Votes be Disqualified Since They are Allowing Non-Citizens to Vote?

The official number of illegal aliens in the state of California is nearly 3 million. We can estimate the number to be more than double this amount in reality.

Over half of all drivers license issued in California were given to individuals who are here illegally and the state automatically registers those with a driver’s license to vote.

In 2015, California Governor Jerry Brown signed a bill giving full voting rights to illegal aliens. This gives them the right to vote in all elections from a local level to national elections, including that of choosing who will become President.

The biggest problem with this is it is against Federal law for non citizens to vote in any national election.This in itself negates the votes made by illegal aliens in California and any other state which allows them to vote.

Californians tried to tell the rest of the nation in the early 1990s what was going on with illegal immigration.

The rest of the nation laughed.

So now California is the big problem.

Massive regions of our great state have had their communities dip into something akin to slums. We have people seeking to get everything they can for nothing, and yet California is the problem.

LOL

Sure it is.

That’s why our fearless leaders want to make all illegals citizens.

Brown does what the party tells him to do. At this point in time the Democrat party owns California. I pray let my people free.

[Califreak]

Rmember Prop 187?

My blood still boils over that one.

Rank and file citizens don’t go in for the open borders sea wrap

Idiet post.

Is that like Ebonics or something else?

[lavaroise]

Fiven that Soros illegals are forbidding us from voting or joining Trump rallies, while we have soldiers dying right now to secure their right to vote in places like Iraq, it figures California should be shamed indeed.

[ThomasThomas]

This isn’t true.

When LBJ lost the Texas Senate race to Coke Stevens by something like 50 votes, he stuffed the ballot box in one of the South Texas border counties with just enough votes to win.

Frank Hamer, the Texas Ranger who caught Bonnie and Clyde caught him red handed. LBJ’s crooks were so bold that they listed the fake votes alphabetically.

Harry Truman sent Abe Fortas down to help Johnson and some Federal court ruled for the jackass Johnson.

That is Democrat machine politics and it still is.

[adorno]

That wall that Trump wants to build, will have to cover all California too. California is like a foreign country. Therefore, California’s votes should not be counted in national elections, and they should not have representation in congress.

"I've long thought California should be re-territorialized, brought under federal control until its finances improve and laws comply with the U.S Constitution."

California state and sanctuary city leaders should be arrested, tried, convicted, and sentenced for giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

[dragnet2]

Good question. Better yet, why are those who concoct and pass these policies/laws not prosecuted or at least barred from serving?

[UCANSEE2]

It's something in the water.

If that were actually true, it would be affecting all of us. Since the rest of the nation is completely sane.... oh wait.

[izzenhood]

Come on guys. How hard is it to Snope a statement that sounds bogus? Jerry Brown did not sign a law give illegals the right to vote. He did however sign a law allowing them to get driver’s licenses, and CA does have the motor voter law which automatically registers the driver to vote. However, any illegal, regardless of whether they are registered to vote, cannot legally vote. It make us look bad, and makes Freerepublic look bad when this kind of misinformation goes around.

I appreciate you expressing your expertise on a state 2000 miles from you.

California voted against same sex marriage not too long ago.

Was that a Leftist tenet?

[DoughtyOne]

I agree.

They didn’t buy into same sex marriage either.

In 2015, California Governor Jerry Brown signed a bill giving full voting rights to illegal aliens. That is simply untrue. California passed no such law. If you click on the link in the original article, it takes you to a report on a California law allowing illegals to get driver's licenses, not to vote.

I'm sure some illegals vote in California; I'm sure some illegals vote in every state. But it is certainly not authorized by California law.

The devil is in the details...

"Any person who renewed or secured a driver’s license through the DMV may now register to vote, or choose to opt out of doing so. Because illegal immigrants are now eligible for obtaining driver’s licenses, they could be allowed to vote in elections if the Secretary of State’s office fails to verify their eligibility properly.

Brown and the California Democratic party know exactly what they are doing; as a Public Policy Institute survey showed, among unregistered adults, 49% lean toward the Democratic Party and 22% toward the Republican Party. Any bill permitting illegal immigrants to vote would cement the Democratic Party’s hold on California."

As a source of cultural sewage, California is now affecting my state, 2000 miles away.

When I found a Cruz memo to Bush in 1999 addressing Propostion 187, in terms of it being wrong-headed, imagine how pleased I was, even years after the fact.

It still frosts me to think about it.

Here was Mr. Constitutional himself, ignoring State’s rights.

[DoughtyOne]

Well, from what I hear your state is no paragon of virtue.

How did those big labor unions work out for you folks up there?

[make no mistake]

I saw this from snopes, not that I am a big fan of snopes but I pray it’s not true that illegals can legally vote here.

Wow!

First I’ve heard about that one.

No kidding?

The Original Consistently Constitutional Conservative Cruz?(TM)

Wow.
