+ The Black people doing this too.
Once again I see lots of white Dems using this to blame Muslims or Arab voters. Stop blaming others for the fact that 57% of white people voted for Trump--only 42% of Whites voted Harris. The 20,000 votes Harris lost in Michigan didn't decide this election-it was white voters. Own it.

not only was non-citizen voting common but the causal relationship between citizenship and voting was often reversed, that is, voting was how a non citizen *demonstrated* their commitment to the political community such that they could become citizens
A real mindfuck that threw me for a loop for a while is that non-citizens voting in US elections was fairly common and uncontroversial in the 19th century.
To the extent you had to do anything at all, you maybe had to sign something declaring your *intent* to become a citizen.

like at the time the Constitution was written the immigration law was "you have to get your own boat here if you want to be an american; we won't send one to pick you up." honestly if they had enough boats i think they would have been in favor of picking the immigrants up with them

Kansas public health officials say the state's ongoing tuberculosis outbreak is the largest since the CDC started reporting TB cases in the 1950s.
