Lawsuit over District of Columbia’s Law Allowing Non-Citizens to Vote is Moved to Federal Court

Last year the city council of Washington, D.C., passed an ordinance letting adult permanent residents who are non-citizens vote for local office. In March 2023 some D.C. voters challenged the constitutionality of that law. On May 4 the case was transferred to federal court. Hall v D.C. Board of Elections, 1:23cv-1261. The case is assigned to U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson, an Obama appointee.

The plaintiffs argue that allowing non-citizens to vote dilutes the voting power of citizens.

  1. Maybe the court will rule that no DC voters are US citizens until this law is repealed?

  2. TYRANTS FROM RUSSIA, RED CHINA, N KOREA, IRAN, ETC. MOVING TO DC AND TAKE OVER ITS REGIME ???

  3. Tyrants from red China already control CNN. That’s why it’s better known these days as Chinese News Network or Communist New Network.
