I was researching Nancy Pelosi and her California 12th district for a new video I am making about the November elections and I came across this, I have really not been here much since I ended up in the hospital for two months back in March. I searched but I didn't see anyone making a topic about it..

A judge has thrown out San Francisco’s practice of allowing non-U.S. citizens to vote in school board elections.

San Francisco Superior Court Judge Richard Ulmer, in a decision released Friday, found that noncitizen voting violated the state constitution, The San Francisco Chronicle reported. He struck down a city ordinance that allowed it.

“Transcendent law of California, the Constitution … reserves the right to vote to a United States citizen, contrary to (the) San Francisco ordinance,” Ulmer said in a ruling that prohibits the city from enforcing the ordinance or counting noncitizens’ votes, the Chronicle reported.

The ordinance, the first of its kind in the state, was approved by city voters as Proposition N in 2016 and took effect in 2018. The Board of Supervisors extended it indefinitely in 2021. It allows noncitizens, including undocumented immigrants and legal residents, to vote for school board candidates if they are a parent or guardian of a school-age child and are not in prison or on parole for a felony conviction.

This reminds me on a side note something funny, when I was researching San Francisco's new minimum wage of $16.99 an hour, I was looking at Indeed and found out like half of San Francisco's, fast food jobs was offering jobs under the minimum I called the local San Francisco's Fox station and told them about it, and they said they already knew. I guess workers have been complaining they are not being paid the new minimum wage of $16.99 an hour

school board candidates if they are a parent or guardian of a school-age child and are not in prison or on parole for a felony conviction--------------

that should be, after all they are sending their children to school.

What does this have to do with Nancy Pelosi?
