The false notion that undocumented immigrants affect federal elections has a long history. But this year, due in part to rising migration at the U.S. southern border, the idea could have new potency.

    Ok, so you just proved what people risk by voting illegally and that they get caught for doing so:

    six years in federal prison, a $350,000 fine, and a term of supervised release

    You’ve answered your own question and didn’t even need my help in the first place.

    The Florida case is about felons and not relevant to a discussion specifically about non-citizens.

    illegal aliens are voting and most likely never get caught

    Not according to any of the statistics.

      The Florida case is about felons and not relevant to a discussion specifically about non-citizens.

      So a case about a voting card being issued to somebody isn’t relevant to a group of individuals who shouldn’t have cards issued either?

      I’m sorry, but you’re beyond my help if you can’t think of how that might apply.
