[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the biggest incentives for me to become a US citizen was so that I could vote. I think it is a mistake to allow non-citizens to vote even in local elections. We all know that local elections are the ones that matter the most and they can either wait to become citizens at 18, like I did, or unfortunately not be able to vote.[/quote] You have not presented any argument for allowing non-citizens or young people to vote in local elections other than jealousy that they won’t have to jump throw the same hoops as you do. It would be like the suffragettes arguing that all women who wish to vote going forward have to launch their own movements if they want to vote.[/quote]
