Yep, it’s true. You don’t have to be a citizen to vote in Colorado. And I bet the same is true in many other places. Watch THIS VIDEO to see Kelly Maher of WhoSaidYouSaid.com, using her utility bill to get a ballot.
Senator Ted Harvey just introduced SB11-018 to require Proof of Citizenship in order to vote in Colorado. Kind of shocking that this is not already the case. Let’s hope sanity falls upon those who would even think of not voting for this bill.
Senator Harvey’s bill to require proof of citizenship to vote is being heard in the State, Veterans & Military Affairs Committee on WEDNESDAY, JAN. 26 at 1:30 pm. Let’s help Senator Harvey in making our elections secure!! If you cannot attend then please email or phone the members of the committee and also the bill sponsors.
