They're painting the legislation that ensures noncitizens cannot vote in elections as the next so-called "Big Lie," sticking to their well-worn narrative that noncitizens already are prohibited from voting in U.S. elections and that such violations "Don't exist."
Not surprisingly, Raskin was among 143 Democrats voting against the Republican-led bill blocking illegal immigrants and other foreign nationals from voting in elections in the district, over which Congress has ultimate authority.
A national poll conducted last year for Americans for Citizen Voting by RMG Research, Inc., found 75 percent of respondents were opposed to allowing foreign nationals to vote in their local elections.
Raskin isn't the only Democrat who has defended foreign nationals voting in elections.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, a Brooklyn Democrat, has been very vocal in his support for aliens voting in New York local elections.
Many of whom don't support illegal aliens and other foreign nationals voting in U.S. elections, know where the party stands heading into the November election.
"Rep. Raskin is okay with the 'dilution of national boundaries.' I am not. And neither are the majority of United States citizens," said Jack Tomczak, national field director for Americans for Citizen Voting, which is leading a growing national effort to amend state constitutions to include citizen-only voting language.
