Because they clearly pointed out he's not a citizen.


I'm sure you know more about the electoral process than I do(considering you said you've volunteered before). Do states leave it up to individual poll workers to suss out if someone is eligible to vote?

If a person is registered to vote, and in some states is required to show an ID, they can vote. These couple workers seem confused(especially about what dreamer/DACA means), and the first one even speculates that the guy isn't registered to vote.

Seems like a lame attempt to allege basically non-existent voter fraud.

I know in my state at least you have to be able to produce a form of state issued identification.


Every state is different though.

I don't think you watched the whole thing.

But even just watching part of it... non-citizen... can't vote. Poll worker should know that. It's Texas law.


Does that poll worker determine who is eligible to vote?

Seemed like a woman having a confused conversation with some idiot trying to confuse her.
