Originally published at: CALIFORNIA CHAOS: San Francisco Issues VOTER REGISTRATION forms to ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS | Sean Hannity
San Francisco made history this week, becoming the first major city in the United States to allow “non-citizens” to vote in local elections; setting the stage for a major showdown between the city government and state officials.
The San Francisco Department of Elections “issued voter registration forms for non-citizens” Monday, officially permitting illegal immigrants the right to vote in an upcoming Board of Education election in November 2018.
According to ABC News, “San Francisco is the first city in the state to allow non-citizens to vote in local elections.”
“As a parent myself and a former member of the SF Board of Education it is critical that the voices of all parents are at the table particularly those that have historically been denied a voice in the process," said Supervisor Sandra Lee Fewer.
“The reason I voted against it is that I think the right to vote is something that goes along with citizenship and should be,” said one RNC Committee member from California.
“I don’t think that people who have otherwise tenuous ties to San Francisco given their lack of legal residence should be making long term decisions about that structure and process," they added.
In order to vote, “non-citizen” San Francisco residents must be at least 18-years-old and reside within the city limits.
