Commentary:

The recent vote in Burlington, Vermont to extend local voting rights to illegal aliens enrolled in DACA, foreign nationals with green cards, and newly-arrived migrants with work permits is a concerning development for Republicans.

While Gov. Scott has expressed support for allowing foreign nationals to vote in local elections, it sets a dangerous precedent that could lead to non-citizens having a say in state and federal elections.

Republicans believe that voting is a right that should be reserved for citizens, as they are the ones who are most invested in the well-being of the country.

Allowing non-citizens to vote in local elections could also lead to voter fraud and undermine the integrity of the election process.

While Vermont may be a small state, this issue has larger implications for the nation as a whole and could set a dangerous precedent for other states to follow.
