This is what you claimed:

"Many [ex-pats] have dual citizenship, because they have denounced their country (USA) but not their citizenship...I bet they vote in both places"

Message 20548756

So, now.. Where exactly is your "proof" that:

(1) Many Americans take on civizenship of the countries they live in (i.e. having dual citizenship, as you claimed)

and

(2) Many expats vote in elections BOTH in their country of residence AND the US (your "bet" that they vote "in both places")

You will of course have to give statistics that prove (1) first before you even start with (2), since expats can't vote in a country if they are not citizens there to start with.

Your two articles show some ex-pat Americans who are voting FOR US ELECTIONS (What a shocker! :-) You think that is news? LOL.) I don't see anything about US ex-pats who are also citizens of their countries of residence, NOR about any such people also voting for the elections in their country of residence. That was, after all, what you claimed and what I asked proof for.
