    I can’t imagine why an illegal immigrant would want to vote. The whole thing is ludicrous.

              Do our territories pay tax? It looks like they do… and they definitely have no representation (non-voting delegates, non-autonomy, the only thing they get is the ability to raise issues and vote on committees, and frankly that’s nothing.)
