In addition to the usual bevy of candidates for offices at the local, state and federal levels, voters in Ohio will be facing a number of ballot propositions next week. One of these is “State Issue 2,” a proposal to prohibit noncitizens from voting in any elections. The first question that comes to mind for some of us is probably along the lines of… ‘wait. Noncitizens are voting?’ Well, not in Ohio. Or at least not yet. But in more liberal parts of the country, laws have been passed that allow legal migrants to vote in local elections and some are pushing to allow illegal aliens to vote as well. If State Issue 2 passes next Tuesday, the matter will be put to rest and only natural-born or naturalized citizens will be allowed to vote in any elections across the state. As usual, the issue is a divisive one along partisan lines. (Associated Press)Read More
