Do you think it's impossible that there are undocumented folks living under false identities and/or stolen SSNs casting votes in elections? It's a yes or no question. To put it another way, do you believe non-citizens in this

Is it your contention that if someone was an illegal immigrant as alleged, and in doing so able to pass a local government background check without arousing suspicion, someone wouldn't be able to outsmart some 80 year old election judg

One of the more egregious stories that made national news and captured the zeitgeist of this situation was the alleged illegal immigrant that was working as a sworn police officer in suburban Chicago: https://www.ice.gov/new

You're right, the world is better off having some Asian kid taking apart your junk and breathing in solder fumes with no protection, rather than you running a legacy box in your basement that uses some extra kWh per year. After all, he
