This is wrong on all fronts - not just for citizens but legal immigrants..This is a vote grab..
Please explain that logic?

And oh, 16 states already have such provisions...MA is hardly the first.

Homie, they sure as hell will vote if they're able to vote themselves all sorts of taxpayer-provided freebies.

In the name of Mao, if they can have a legal document they can vote! Clear enough for you?

Aside from the RMV systems which will prevent them from automatically being registered, these folks will risk deportation for falsely claiming citizenship, just to be able to vote? Clear enough for you?

Amigo, for a millionth time, they won't be voting illegally, politburo will do everything they can to let them vote "legally" now that we have countless millions of illegals who can keep politburo in power forever. And for a millionth time since you're going to bring up the DACA foot-dragging, letting 600,000 DACA illegals vote will not offset the pis*ed off independents who will start voting Republican. Letting the asylum jefe, asylum herd vote which is already in the millions and will at this rate be over 10 million soon enough will more than offset any of the lost independent votes

Just ONE shred of evidence for this? In MA, not Portland, not NYC, please.

And for the umpteenth time--they cannot vote legally, even if they get MA licenses.

Are you not able to read or are you just being deliberately obtuse?

You're offering up utter BS speculation, based on zero evidence, that these guys are being given the right to vote, and I'm the one being obtuse?

Curious as to how letting anyone get a license is actually helpful though? Who does this help?

I guess people don't need a social security card or number to get a license anymore? It clearly helps the people who don't have that. It doesn't help residents of MA or anyone else though right? It just helps the people here illegally or maybe someone on the run from another state or country?

I went to vote yesterday and it surprises me they ask for no ID. I went into where I am registered and gave my name and address. They had my name and address on a list, checked me off and i went and voted. Many people could have walked in, said they were me, given my address and voted as well.

Strange times we live in for sure.

Is it not already happening in several places? You kept babbling about DACA but seems like you've dropped it because you know folks see right through your BS and reverted to the lil not happening in here excuse.
