Here are the requirements for registering to vote under the National Voters Registration Act (Motor Voter Law). elections.state.ny.us crimetrack.com ***************** For purposes of this section, proof of current residence shall consist of: A currently valid California driver's license or state identification card, which includes the voter's name and current residence address, or: Any two of the following documents, both of which must contain the voter's name and current residence address: Utility bill Property tax statement Military identification College or university fee card or student identification Lease agreement Income tax return Vehicle registration Mortgage statement Preprinted check or bank deposit slip Mail addressed to the voter at his or her current residence address Sworn statement from a voter in the precinct Bank statement *************** Note that NOWHERE in the above criteria is there any requirement to show proof of citizenship. So here we have non-citizens completely able to share the same ability to impact our local, state, and federal elections process with each of us who were born, or naturalized here. Tell me how many other countries in this world make it possible for US residents living in their countries to vote in THEIR elections? Regards, Ron
