I was totally unaware of this. Illegals and legal aliens voting federal and state elections, as well some local elections where it is "permissable". They have also been found to have been serving on jury duty. What happened to being judged by a jury of your peers? Apparently legal aliens also think that voting is a privilege that they are entitled to, some saying it's because they submitted their papers for citizenship.
The article states, basically, that it has been going on since forever.

Alot of benefits come from filling out a voter registration card.
Excerpt from article with regard to legal aliens:
Quote:
How aliens view the importance of this benefit was illustrated by the work of a federal grand jury in 1984 that found large numbers of aliens registered to vote in Chicago. As
the grand jury reported, many aliens "register to vote so that they can obtain documents identifying them as U.S. citizens" and have "used their voters' cards to obtain a myriad of benefits, from social security to jobs with the Defense Department." The U.S. Attorney at the time estimated that there were at least 80,000 illegal aliens registered to vote in Chicago, and dozens were indicted and convicted for registering and voting.
The grand jury's report resulted in a limited cleanup of the voter registration rolls in Chicago, but just one year later, INS District Director A. D. Moyer testified before a state legislative task force that 25,000 illegal and 40,000 legal aliens remained on the rolls in Chicago. Moyer told the Illinois Senate that non-citizens registered so they could get a voter registration card for identification, adding that the card was "
a quick ticket into the unemployment compensation system." An alien from Belize, for example, testified that he and his two sisters were able to register easily because they were not asked for any identification or proof of citizenship and lied about where they were born. After securing registration, he voted in Chicago.
Apparently federal agencies are not willing to work with states to identify illegals and legal aliens through voter registration.
