Election integrity is one of the key issues that Republicans must confront for the 2022 elections and beyond. After the chaotic events of the 2020 presidential election, any Republican who ignores election integrity is clearly out of touch with political reality and is setting himself and the party on the path to political irrelevance.
Thankfully, states like Ohio are taking the issue of election integrity seriously by having its legislature vote to place a constitutional amendment on the ballot which would restrict the right to vote to American citizens, while making sure that local governments cannot extend voting privileges to individuals who are not US citizens.
Earlier this year, New York City’s decision to allow foreign nationals to vote in local elections has alarmed many conservative leaders nationwide.
Although NYC’s measure is still being dealt with in the courts, other states such as Ohio and Tennessee have taken proactive measures to ensure that only citizens vote in elections. For example, local governments have been prohibited from granting non-citizens the right to vote.
New York City’s action to enact voting rights for foreign nationals in January set off alarm bells all over the country. Other cities such as Boston, Chicago, Portland, Maine, and San Jose have been working to allow aliens to vote in their respective elections.
