DeSantis has such obvious gay voice, he's so lucky Trump never called him fruity.

Even redditoids can recognize how r-slurred it is to allow non-citizens to vote.

NYC law that would have allowed 800K noncitizens to vote struck as unconstitutional by appeals court: ‘Enacted in violation'

A controversial New York City law that would have allowed 800,000 noncitizens, but legal residents, to vote in municipal elections was struck down as unconstitutional by a state appeals court Wednesday.

“We determine that this local law was enacted in violation of the New York State Constitution and Municipal Home Rule Law, and thus, must be declared null and void,” Appellate Judge Paul Wooten wrote in the 3-1 majority decision.

Wooten said the state constitution broadly refers to only citizens having the right to vote in elections, municipal as well as statewide or for state legislative offices.

“Article IX provides that the elected officials of ‘local governments' shall be elected by ‘the people,' which incorporates by reference the eligibility requirements for voting under article II, section 1, applying exclusively to ‘citizens,'” the judge wrote.

The decision upholds a lower court ruling issued by Staten Island Supreme Court Justice Ralph Porzio in June 2022, which Mayor Eric Adams and the City Council had appealed.

Writing for the Appellate Division's 2nd Department, Wooten said that if noncitizens are allowed to vote, it stands to reason they could also run for mayor.

He ruled that such a dramatic change violated the Municipal Home Rule Law, saying the council and mayor had failed to put the issue on the ballot for voters to decide.

Judges Angela Iannacci and Helen Voutsinas concurred in the ruling.

Judge Lilian Wan issued a dissenting opinion.

“The majority, by deeming the noncitizen voting law invalid, effectively prohibits municipalities across the state from deciding for themselves the persons who are entitled to a voice in the local electoral process,” she wrote.

“The majority's determination also disenfranchises nearly one million residents of the City, despite the fact that its people's duly elected representatives have opted to enfranchise those same residents.”

Staten Island Borough President Vito Fossella was the lead plaintiff in the case along with Assemblyman Michael Tannousis (R-Staten Island), among others.

“During a time where nearly 200,000 migrants have flooded our city and streets, disrupting the public and attacking our police officers, my colleagues and I have worked tirelessly to protect our voting laws which were created for citizens of the United States,” Tannousis said.

“Democracy always wins and I am proud to say it was delivered yet again today.”

US Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY), who represents Staten Island, was also among the lawmakers who applauded the decision.

“There is nothing more important than preserving the integrity of our election system, and in today's age, the government should be working to create more trust in our elections, not less,” the congresswoman said.

“The right to vote is a sacred right given only to United States citizens. It is my hope that left-wing lawmakers stop pushing these unconstitutional and reckless measures that dilute the voices of American citizens,” she added.

A city Law Department spokesman said, “We're reviewing the court's decision and evaluating next steps.”

Democratic strategist James Carville argued "too many preachy females" in the Democratic Party could be to blame for President Biden's bleeding support from key voters.

In an interview published Saturday with New York Times opinion columnist Maureen Dowd, Carville voiced concerns about the culture of the Democratic Party and how it could be impacting Biden's support among voters, especially those that are male.

"A suspicion of mine is that there are too many preachy females ... 'Don't drink beer, don't watch football, don't eat hamburgers, this is not good for you,'" he said. "The message is too feminine: 'Everything you're doing is destroying the planet. You've got to eat your peas.'"

Carville, who was a strategist for former President Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign, argued this culture and rhetoric is not addressing the concerns of male voters.

"If you listen to Democratic elites --- NPR is my go-to place for that --- the whole talk is about how women, and women of color, are going to decide this election. I'm like: 'Well, 48 percent of the people that vote are males. Do you mind if they have some consideration?" Carville said.

When it comes to Biden's low approval ratings, Carville quipped, "When I look at these polling numbers, it's like walking in on your grandma naked. You can't get the image out of your mind."

Carville in recent weeks has also expressed concerns about Biden's falling support among voters of color and called it a "problem" for the incumbent last week.

According to a Gallup poll released last month, Democrats' lead as Black Americans' party of preference has fallen 20 points in the past three years, while their lead among Latinx adults is at its lowest point since 2011. A CBS News poll from last month showed Biden's support among Black voters was down from 87 percent in 2020 to 76 percent this year.

Despite his worries about the president's campaign, Carville noted he "actually likes Biden."

"He's a tenacious guy that's had a real life. He's a state school guy. He doesn't have an iota of elitism. He doesn't even know what 'woke' is. He's been demonstrably the best president that Black America's ever had, Clinton and Obama included," he said. "You look at incomes, employment, poverty rates, access to health care. It's not where whites are, but it's closer than it's ever been."

The Biden campaign is ramping up efforts to reach voters of color, and last week, it launched ads of Biden directly speaking to Black voters in battleground states. The campaign argued another term for former President Trump would be a "disaster" for the demographic.

The campaign later announced a program to engage Latinx voters, whom Biden called "the reason why, in large part," he beat Trump in 2020 while fundraising in Arizona last week.

The Hill reached out to the Biden campaign for further comment.
