Subject: Re: Bbbut illegals don't vote
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?
Because there’s no virtually profit and great risk in voting illegally, but just being here can change your life for the better. It’s the same reason you don’t go back to the store if the cashier gives you an extra 3˘ (theft), but you don’t rob the store using a gun (also theft). You’re pretending the offenses are equal, and of course they’re nothing alike.
state mistakenly registered more than 300 non-citizens as voters since 2021
Not quite the same as “they voted”, but still it was a mistake and should be corrected.
PS: Oregon has 3,100,000 registered drivers, and the license lasts for 8 years. That means there are 387,500 registrations or re-registrations per year. Or, in percentage terms, 0.000774 error rate. Not perfect, but probably better than Boeing or your local heart surgeon.
