Hochul running mate voted to allow noncitizen voting in NYC elections

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul's running mate, former New York City Council member Adrienne Adams, voted in favor of allowing some noncitizens to vote in Big Apple municipal elections.

Adams voted for the measure passed by the city council in late 2021 that would have allowed lawful permanent residents and individuals authorized to work in the country to vote in the city's municipal contests.

The measure was ultimately struck down by the Empire State's highest court, according to the New York Post.
