A new bill introduced in thewould allow illegal immigrants to vote in the Constitution State, marking the latest push in a number of states to broaden voting to include non-citizens.
State Rep. Juan Candelaria, who introduced the proposal for the amendment, told the Hartford Courant that he didn’t expect the bill to pass this time, but to open a debate for the future. "When we talk about undocumented individuals, they are part of our fabric of this nation and of the state…They’re part of the community and they should have a voice,"."People might not be amicable to this idea, and I respect that opinion, but at least by having the process, we can have the dialogue and we can have the debate. And that’s all I want."

The irony is if it fails, even a thief will fight to keep other thieves out....
Doesn't surprise me they tried making Spanish the state language back in the late 80s when I lived there
Here it comes!!!!
This cannot be legal. I know it’s immoral and unfair.
This is an issue that will be forced by the left nationwide eventually. The left will willingly give this country away to get more votes. They are not citizens! They should not vote for anything!
God help us
So foreign governments can control our cities? How stupid.
Shouldn't the PEOPLE of the state vote on it FIRST. Convention of States
Totally unpatriotic and disloyal to Connecticut citizens! Disgustingly shameful those politicians should be ashamed of themselves!
Supreme Court would throw that out in one swoop - hope someone challenges it for the sake of the state
Makes a complete mockery of US immigration process that many have gone through legally over many years costing many thousands of dollars in able for us to vote. Many states in the US are spiraling downwards into oblivion with tossers like Gavin Newsom at the helm.
How can illegal immigrants be residents ? W T F
Not right. If your aren’t a US citizen you don’t have a right to vote for our administration. THIS the ONLY reason democrat are doing this. Buying bites.
Time to boot them out of the union
