That particular truth lives only in your head. It does not reside on any document or result of any investigation. In fact any investigation of the matter has shown that illegals do not vote. If, out of 155 million people, there were 5 illegal residents who voted that would be remarkable.

Sooooo.....you’d think there would be more than 3 votes for “yes” by now, considering the right-wing talking point that “all democrats are for allowing illegals to vote”.






This is easily the most unanimous poll turnout I’ve yet to see on C-D....

Not entirely true:

Currently, 12 states and the District of Columbia allow noncitizens to obtain drivers licenses. Oftentimes, these illegal aliens are added to the voter rolls at the time they renew their drivers licenses without any attempt made on behalf of the government to verify their United States citizenship. Thus, this loophole in the system is part of the problem.
You have to ask yourself why 12 states+DC why states would do this (motor voter, and drivers' licenses for illegals) unless they wanted illegals to vote.

They want to do it because they want illegals to get insurance if they have a DL. Illegals are gonna drive anyway with or without insurance. If they get added to the voter rolls it is the states fault and not the illegals. also, the state now knows who they are and where they live.

This is such a terrible argument. No, illegals won't be driving if you make it very tough for them to drive. Instead, the logic seems to be illegals will break any law the US has anyways, so why not make it easy for them to live like legal residents?

So why register them to vote via motor voter?

Might as well give murderer a weapon to kill anyway because, you know, he will kill regardless, right?


I was a California's cop before AB60 became law in California. Do you know what I did to people without a driver license and insurance? I impounded their car.


The pro-illegal immigrant crowd keeps saying that the border wall is useless to prevent illegal immigrantion and we should use alternative methods, but then they turn around and pass AB60.


Mind blow
