This...this can't be constitutional, let alone should not be allowed.
One of the privileges of being a citizen is having the right to vote. You can't just walk into the United States and vote.
This is ridiculous.
I can't think of any grounds on which it could be declared unconstitutional.
I did look back at the 15th Amendment. It does look like it's up to interpretation since it doesn't explicitly state that non-citizens can't vote. It just outlines how citizens can vote.
If I were a judge or justice, however, I would strike it down.
The 15th Amendment has nothing to do with it.
It sounds like you're saying that you would strike the law down on policy grounds without any sound legal reasoning for doing so. Isn't that the "judicial activism" you blue avatars are always railing against?
Obviously a state law could put an end to this. A federal prohibition? Less clear.
