[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many citizens are undocumented. People seem to be using undocumented in place of illegal aliens. The title doesn't say illegal aliens, it says non-citizens, who could be here legally.[/quote] The proposal includes those who are here legally and illegally. I think everyone understands that. The focus on the undocumented is that it is the most extreme case because it is so hard to even verify identify and residency. In any case, the proposal also does not make sense for a non-citizen here legally. It makes zero sense that someone who cannot legally contribute to a political campaign would be allowed to legally vote in an election.[/quote] The proposal only allows voting for DC local elections. “Undocumented” is generally used as a euphemism for “illegal aliens”. Both terms are lazy and generally encompass a whole bunch of those who migrate in a documented and legal manner.[/quote]
