City Drops a Pretty Penny to Register Illegal Aliens to Vote

By Townhall. Just when we think liberals in California couldn’t possibly do something to surprise us, they manage to catch us off guard. This is definitely one of those instances. The liberal hub of San Francisco spent $310,000 – or roughly $6,300 per person – to register 49 illegal aliens to vote in local school elections, the Sacramento Bee reported.

The move comes after San Francisco voters decided back in 2016 to allow illegal aliens over the age of 18 to vote in school elections. In order to be eligible to vote in these elections, the illegal alien must be of age, reside in city limits and have kids under the age of 19. . .

“We created a separate ballot for these folks. We have separate roster pages for the polling places, we have a separate registration affidavit,” Arntz said. “We have a separate vote by mail ballot application, we have a separate website page. ” . . .

“Voting is paramount to having a voice,” Stevon Cook, vice-president of the SFUSD Board of Education, told SFGate. “Seeing our families feel like they have to go into hiding, like they can’t have their concerns heard because of the attacks from the White House is something we want to stand firmly against. This is part of an overall strategy that assures that families in our city, whether they’re citizens or not, they have a voice in the direction and future of our schools.” (Read more from “City Drops a Pretty Penny to Register Illegal Aliens to Vote” HERE)

Pollster: GOP Base ‘Coming Home’ Because Trump Nationalized Illegal Immigration Issue

By Breitbart. The Republican base is “coming home” before Tuesday’s midterm elections because President Donald Trump has nationalized the illegal immigration issue, according to Bill McInturff, the Republican pollster who conducts the NBC/Wall Street Journal (WSJ) poll with Democrat Peter Hart.

Trump has made illegal immigration and the migrant caravan central issues of the 2018 campaign, and a CNN poll released on Monday found that immigration is more important to Republican voters (64% said it was extremely important to their vote) than the economy (60%).

“There has been some method to his madness,” McInturff told CNBC when asked to explain the findings of Sunday’s NBC/WSJ midterm poll. “The base is coming home.”

CNBC noted that the WSJ/NBC poll found that Republicans have cut into the Democrats’ lead on the generic ballot because Trump’s “late campaign blitz” focusing on illegal immigration has “rallied the Republican base of white working-class voters, helping to curb the Democratic advantage heading into Tuesday’s midterm elections for Congress.”

Democrats have a seven-point lead in the generic ballot in the WSJ/NBC News poll, down two points from a month ago before Trump honed in on the illegal immigration issue. The news for Republicans gets better in other polls. Democrats only have a three-point lead in Monday’s Politico/Morning Consult poll while the GOP actually leads in the generic ballot in Rasmussen’s final survey.
