Naturalized Citizens Make Up Record One-in-Ten U.S. Eligible Voters in 2020
Pew ^ | February 26, 2020 | Abby Budiman, Luis Noe-Bustamante

Posted on 02/28/2020 10:23:04 AM PST by yesthatjallen

More than 23 million U.S. immigrants will be eligible to vote in the 2020 presidential election, making up roughly 10% of the nation’s overall electorate – both record highs, according to Pew Research Center estimates based on Census Bureau data.

The number of immigrant eligible voters has increased steadily over the past 20 years, up 93% since 2000. By comparison, the U.S.-born eligible voter population grew more slowly (by 18%) over the same period, from 181 million in 2000 to 215 million in 2020. 1 (Immigrant eligible voters are those ages 18 and older born outside the United States who have gained U.S. citizenship through naturalization.)

The nation’s immigrant voters have diverse backgrounds. Most immigrant eligible voters are either Hispanic or Asian, though they hail from countries across the globe. Immigrants from Mexico make up the single largest group, at 16% of foreign-born voters. More than half of all U.S. immigrants (56%) live in the country’s four most populous states: California, New York, Texas and Florida. Two-thirds have lived in the U.S. for more than 20 years and 63% are proficient in English.

The Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA) proceeds.

Importing enough voters to dilute the strength of Americans to resist the New World Order.

“More than 23 million U.S. immigrants will be eligible to vote in the 2020 presidential election...”

And their voter turnout will be higher than natural born citizens.

90% of new citizens vote Dem.

Defies explanation in some cases, but its a FACT.

That may even be the case in theory, but in practice the group that actually came here tends strongly towards the Latin American flavors of Communism.

Shouldn’t English proficiency be a REQUIREMENT for naturalization?

This can’t be true. Wikipedia told me that the great replacement is a far-right conspiracy theory.

“natural allies of conservatives”

Their loyalty can be bought, as was the custom where they came from.

If you think William Barr is going to try and revoke the citizenship of a sitting Member of Congress, there’s a bridge in Brooklyn I’d like to sell you.

Then I suggest that what is left of "we the people" pressure our Reps. and senators to do something about removing Omar from all committees. DEMAND IT.
