Remember, kids: Concerns about the deliberate weakening of our electoral structures are totally conspiracy theories until the day they're not:

New York City lawmakers are poised to allow more than 800,000 New Yorkers who are green card holders or have the legal right to work in the United States to vote in municipal elections and for local ballot initiatives.

The bill, known as "Our City, Our Vote," would make New York City the largest municipality in the country to allow noncitizens to vote in local elections...

"It's important for the Democratic Party to look at New York City and see that when voting rights are being attacked, we are expanding voter participation," said Ydanis Rodriguez, a councilman who sponsored the bill and represents Washington Heights in Upper Manhattan.

"It's important for the Democratic Party..."

I think that about sums it up, right?

Seriously, does anyone believe, if these policies were harmful to Democrats at the ballot box, that Democrats would be championing them?

The betting pool is officially open as to how long it will take until non-citizens can cast ballots in federal elections. I'll start: Two years, give or take!
