College Park will allow non-citizens to vote in local elections
The Baltimore Sun ^ | September 13, 2017 | The Associated Press

Residents who supported the change said it was about civil rights. Those who opposed it said voting is a privilege immigrants should earn with citizenship.

In the 1960s, Civil Rights was about bringing the US up to its promise of Democracy. 60 years later, Civil Rights is used as a weapon to destroy the very principles our Democracy was founded on.

Foreigners voting in our elections is treason.

I wonder if the courts will eventually get involved.

For a very low price we could buy a few hundred thousand write-in votes from China and get whoever we want elected.

I’m a US citizen. Not a resident of College Park though. I (Thank God) reside in Texas.

But using their logic - I can still vote there, right?

I am a member of the Republican Central Committee for Prince George’s County, Maryland. We discussed this at our Monday meeting and agreed to take a stand on the issue, a bit too late really. One of our members, a resident of College Park, brought it up. Lee was planning to attend the council meeting. Isn’t it dreadful what damage a 4 to 3 majority can do?

And that was the problem.

Even when GW Bush was elected, the first time he mentioned what our country is he said a democracy. I cringed

Democracy leads to socialism which leads to communism.

This is why the USA and other western countries are trying to make democracies of any nation they can.

The USA is a Constitutional Republic.

MD ping again.

More insanity from this state. Bad morning hearing the radio news:

College Park allows illegals to vote, and Moslems are creating their own little fiefdom in Harford County.

What’s super scary is I found out also on the radio from this that neigboring Takoma Park - long a liberal leftist paradise - has allowed illegal voting since ‘91! (And I went to College Park in that time period!)

I’ll not only vote in College Park, but I’ll run for office there as well.

Even though I live in Texas. Hell, who needs silly rules about residency and citizenship, right?

I’m a Constitutional conservative. I’m a anti-abortion, pro-2A, fiscally sound, limited government guy who will not show special interests to LBTQWXWY activists, or BLM or antifa kooks but who will endorse family values and promote pro-conservative ideals.

All here from my home in Texas.

I’m the kind of guy College Park people need.

And pretty soon, the University of Maryland-College Park will resemble a 3rd world nation. Great going!!!
