You are presumably aware that there have been many illegal immigrants arriving during the Obama and Biden administrations, yet Democrats oppose any attempt to prevent these people (who already broke the law) from voting. Recently Connecticut Secretary of State (CTSoS) Stephanie Thomas effectively called Republicans Nazis over attempts to require proof of citizenship to register to vote.
Here are some things you might not have known.
First, the impact of the illegal immigration is significant even if none of the illegal aliens attempts to vote. Because of illegal immigration, the House of Representatives which would have been controlled by Republicans since 2020 was Democrat in 2020 and is closely contested now. This is because the Census counts all residents and House seats are apportioned based on the total. Given 2024 estimates of illegal immigrants which confirm prior estimates by Yale and MIT researchers, and which exclude the illegal immigration surge of the Biden years, illegal immigration, added four house seats to California and one each to New York, New Jersey and Illinois. Absent the illegal immigration, those seats would have gone to Republican states, swinging the House of Representatives to Republicans by seven seats!
This is because most illegals can be found in California, and states with sanctuary policies. Democrats have been working on this for years and this paid off with the 2020 census.
When it comes to voting, one study estimated that as many as 15% of the 22 million illegal immigrants vote. Yet it's no surprise that Democrats like CT SoS Stephanie Thomas claim voting by illegals is rare. This is mainly because they’ve never tried identify non-citizen voters, and obstruct and challenge any attempts to do so. Yet where anyone looked carefully, like in North Carolina, they found 747,000 invalid registration in one year alone.
Democrats claim that registering to vote is already too hard and this discourages people and so they keep passing laws which make false registration easier. But there are only 168 million registered voters, and when asked why they don’t register to vote, the vast majority say they are not interested in voting.
In fact, registering to vote is easier than nearly anything else, with online voter registration requiring no documentation available in most states and only a handful of states requiring proof of identity to vote. Of those surveyed, fewer the 1% claim registering to vote is too hard. What’s more, of the approximately 262 million adults in the US, 242 million have a driver’s license which requires a written test, a driving test and an eye exam. If so many can get a driver’s license, it seems reasonable that they be required to present it when voting.
The 2005 REAL-ID law requires proof of citizenship when you get a driver’s license. And, starting May 7, 2025, a driver’s license without REAL-ID verification cannot be used to enter airports and many other federal facilities. CT Centinal obtained copies of emails requesting that the Greenwich Registrar use the Connecticut REAL-ID database to verify citizenship of Greenwich Registered voters who have REAL-ID. The DMV refused to provide the data to the Greenwich Registrar, and the Greenwich Registrar did not pursue the matter past sending a query to the office of CT SoS, who said “no.” It's not surprising given that the CT SoS apparently believes requiring proof of citizenship to vote is somehow equivalent to the horrors of the Nazi SS.
The bottom line here is that if you are a Republican, your vote counts less and less because Democrats are importing people into “sanctuary jurisdictions” controlled by Democrats to bolster their population and to indoctrinate their children, while blocking attempts to clean up voter lists. And worse, in CT the Republican Party under the leadership of Ben Proto is doing nothing concrete to combat any of this, not even trying to register new Republicans.
