The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The usual logic is that illegals don't vote because it's illegal for them to vote in federal elections.

Think about that statement, and the cognitive dissonance buried in it. For those who don't get it...they already broke a host of laws to get here in the first place. What's one more?

Anyways, the next line is that they don't get registered to vote Because Reasons. But is even that accurate? Turns out...no:

apnews.com - Oregon dmv noncitizens voter registration

How many other "data entry issues" are out there?
