Noncitizens are registering to vote and at best, it seems the federal governments officials dont care about this illegal activity.
At worst, it raises questions about whether some in Washington support illegal voting, so long as it supports their political agenda.
The exact number of noncitizens who are voting in our elections is difficult to quantify because of the bureaucratic quagmire perpetuated by federal agencies against the (very few) states that have the resolve to attempt to verify citizenship.

I understand from another thread that the feds are not allowing states to check voter citizenship status on (mandatory use?) federal voting applications.
Obama Admin. Wont Let States Ask for Proof of Citizenship On Voter Registration Form!
One problem with this federal action that the Supreme Court has historically clariifed, in Minor v. Happersett, that citizenship does not automatically confer the right to to vote.
In fact, the only voting rights that the states have amended the Constitution to expressly protect deal with race, sex, tax status status and age as evidenced by the 15th, 19th, 24th and 26th Amendments respectively. So there is no constitutionally protected right to vote on the basis of citizenship.
So even though the feds have the constitutional authority to regulate immigration (1.8.4), is still up to the states to decide whether or not someone can vote based on their citizenship status imo.
And the reason that the 17th Amendment is a problem is that federal senators should have protected their states by not passing the bill that prohibits states from checking citizenship status on federal voting applications.
The 17th Amendment needs to disappear along with corrupt senators.
Because the people the fraudsters are voting in are in charge and duh, why would they care?
Until there is voter ID, etc. we are screwed...but maybe we are already.
For the national government, let alone a single stinking bureaucrat, to otherwise set voter quals is another example of Obama tyranny.
The circle of liberty contracts every day.
Article V while we can.
The only answer is to Vote 4 Cruz!
also, Fox News has wasted a whole week of our lives reporting on “fred”. They played right into the Soros crowd.
