what the hell, it's in the Constitution isn't it, guaranteeing every citizen the right to vote - it doesn't say 'resident'.

Mutt; illegal aliens are not showing up at the polling places; fuck, citizens are not showing up at the polling stations. It is a non-issue. You are right, only citizens can/should vote; but we should not have to jump through hoops to prove we are one. Not everyone has a passport, not everyone could find their birth certificate to save their life. Illegal aliens are not going to draw attention to them self by going to vote.
