New Haven Mayor Wants Legal and Non-Legal Resident to Vote

The New Haven Independent reports that uber-liberal Mayor DeStefano plans to lobby for changes in CT law to allow all residents of his fine city to vote in local elections.  Currently, our crude laws require you to be a U.S. citizen to vote.  DeStefano would like us to extend that privilege to non-citizens including those that might be here illegally.  Laughable except that this guy could be governor some day.  Read the story here

I’d consider letting legal residents ote in local elections, but only legal residents.  What do you think?
