Push Is On to Give Legal Immigrants Vote in New York

Un-freaking believeable! Voting is a right reserved to citizens. I don't care if you're here legally, illegally or otherwise - if you don't want to bother becoming an American citizen, you should not be able to vote in American elections. Period. End of discussion.

Elected officials, labor unions and community groups are starting to advocate the notion of allowing immigrants to vote in the New York City elections.
