      Noncitizens aren’t totally barred from voting in San Francisco. In 2016, after multiple attempts in previous years to pass a similar measure, voters approved Proposition N, which allowed San Francisco noncitizens to vote in school board elections if they had a child who went to school in the district.

      What’s wrong with voting in school board elections?

        I actually don’t have a problem with tax payers voting for local things even if they are not citizens. They are paying taxes.

          Not sure why you’re down voted for this. It’s a good opinion to have, and it’s what everyone agrees on from what I can tell.

            Easy enough. Many people don’t read the content. They just hit downvote if they know you’re conservative.
