Once again, the Democrats cannot grasp the concepts in the U.S. Constitution or local state laws.

From the article - Under the new bill (H 5461), cities and towns would be permitted to “allow all residents of the municipality to vote in municipal elections for municipal officeholders regardless of the immigration status of the residents.”

The Constitution guarantees the right to vote in the United States, which has been amended to expand and protect that right. The 15th Amendment, ratified in 1870, prohibited denying the right to vote based on race, color, or previous condition of servitude. The 19th Amendment, ratified in 1920, extended the right to vote to women. The 26th Amendment, ratified in 1971, lowered the voting age to 18.

Today, in the United States, any citizen at least 18 years old who meets specific eligibility requirements has the right to vote. Those eligibility requirements vary by state but generally include being a state resident, being registered to vote, and not being a convicted felon (in some states, felons who have completed their sentences are eligible to vote).

In addition, the Voting Rights Act of 1965 prohibits any state or local government from enacting any voting laws or practices that discriminate against minority voters. This includes things like voter ID laws, which have been shown to affect low-income and minority voters disproportionately.

It's worth noting that while the Constitution guarantees the right to vote, there have been efforts in recent years to restrict that right. Some states have implemented more stringent voter ID laws or reduced early voting periods, for example, which have been criticized for making it more difficult for some eligible voters to cast their ballots. However, ongoing efforts are also to protect and expand the right to vote, including legislation aimed at increasing access to voting by mail and early voting, as well as restoring voting rights to felons who have completed their sentences.

Overall, the right to vote is a fundamental right in the United States and one that is essential to the functioning of a healthy democracy. While there have been efforts to restrict that right in recent years, there are also ongoing efforts to protect and expand it, and to ensure that every eligible citizen has the opportunity to make their voice heard at the ballot box.

Here in Wisconsin - In Wisconsin, any citizen of the United States who is 18 years or older and has resided in the state for at least 28 days before an election is eligible to vote. Additionally, the individual must not have been convicted of a felony and completed their sentence, including probation and parole, and must not be serving a sentence for a felony.

When casting their vote, voters in Wisconsin must provide a valid photo identification form, such as a driver's license, state ID, passport, or military ID. Those who do not have a valid form of identification may obtain a free state ID card from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for voting purposes.

It is important to note that voters in Wisconsin must be registered to vote to participate in elections. Wisconsin offers same-day voter registration, allowing eligible individuals to register to vote at their polling place on election day with proof of residence, such as a utility bill or bank statement.

In summary, any citizen of the United States who is 18 years or older, has resided in Wisconsin for at least 28 days before an election, and is not currently serving a sentence for a felony has the right to vote in the State of Wisconsin. Voter identification and registration requirements must also be met to cast a ballot.
