Victory for Election Integrity: New York’s Highest Court Strikes Down NYC’s Law Allowing Non-Citizens to Vote

New York’s Supreme Court on Thursday struck down a law that would have allowed non-citizens to vote in municipal elections.

In 2021, New York City lawmakers passed a bill that would give noncitizens and illegal aliens the right to vote in municipal elections.

The new measure would give 800,000 green card holders and illegal alien “DREAMers” the right to cast a ballot.

The City Council bypassed state lawmakers and passed the measure and as expected, it prompted a legal challenge.
