Instead, where someone thought incorrectly that they could vote and got a provisional ballot, they are sentenced to jail to send the message that them thar darkies shouldn't vote. But Texas finally acquitted her 7 years later, because knowledge that you are illegally voting is required, not just negligence. - Lambo

Too bad that happened to the poor immigrant who very easily misunderstand since they are unfamiliar with our culture, laws, procedures and language.

Such a person could very easily be exploited by an activist inclined to do so. They could tell the immigrant that voting would help them in a future immigration hearing, showing their commitment to our system.

What makes no sense is knowingly allowing a person ineligible to vote to be added to the voter registration database.
