CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECENBER 13, 2021
THE NEW YORK CITY COUNCIL, WHICH IS DOMINATED BY DEMOCRATS, HAS VOTED TO ALLOW
ROUGHLY 800 THOUSAND NON-CITIZENS TO VOTE IN LOCAL ELECTIONS. I GUESS DEMOCRATS THINK THEY
DON’T HAVE ENOUGH OPPORTUNITIES TO CHEAT.
THE MEASURE, WHICH HAS YET TO BE SIGNED BY OUTGOING MAYOR BILL DEBLASIO, WOULD
STILL NOT ALLOW ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS TO VOTE, BUT IT SURE LOOKS LIKE A STEP IN THAT DIRECTION.
FOR THOSE WHO DIDN’T TAKE CIVICS IN SCHOOL, FEDERAL LAW SAYS ONE MUST BE A CITIZEN OF
THE UNITED STATES IN ORDER TO VOTE. NON-CITIZENS AND PERMANENT LEGAL RESIDENTS CANNOT
VOTE. THAT’S NOT UNIQUE TO AMERICA. OTHER DEMOCRATIC COUNTRIES HAVE THE SAME LAWS. WHEN I
TRAVEL ABROAD – EVEN WHEN I OWNED PROPERTY IN THE UK – I HAD TO PAY TAXES, BUT I COULDN’T
VOTE. THAT’S BECAUSE I AM NOT A UK CITIZEN.
THIS IS PART OF A PLAN BY THE LEFT TO WIN ELECTIONS FOREVER BY ADDICTING PEOPLE TO
GOVERNMENT BENEFITS AND THEN GETTING THEIR VOTES. LAWSUITS WILL BE – AND SHOULD BE —
FORTHCOMING. LET’S HOPE THIS NEW YORK CITY LAW AND SIMILAR LAWS ARE STRUCK DOWN FOR OUR
COUNTRY’S SAKE. OR WE WILL LOSE IT ALL. I’M CAL THOMAS.
