"In Washington state 1,678 illegal votes were cast in the 2004 general election, which exceeded the margin of victory. Some voters have been told at the polls that they have already voted! Residents of cemeteries vote. A member of the New York City Council proposed allowing illegal immigrants to vote in local elections. By enacting this bill, we can help restore confidence in our system and thereby encourage voter participation."
