New Haven Mayor Asks State to Allow Illegals to Vote In Muni Elections
New Haven Mayor John DeStefano plans to ask the state Legislature to allow illegal immigrants who live in the city to be able vote in municipal elections.
No.
DeStefano said on Tuesday that the proposal would build a more engaged community and follows the lead of other cities, the New Haven Register reports.
Ghostly voice of my sainted mother: "If all the other cities jumped off a bridge would you jump, too?"
The Register reports that 10,000 to 12,000 undocumented residents are believed to live in New Haven.
Unfreakingbelievable
