And maybe illegal immigrants shouldn't have been encouraged as your party's leader said..."surge to the border" so their illegal votes count!Maybe dumb assed Republicans should be making efforts to make it more secure, instead of preventing or eliminating vote by mail. I don't think they want it secure, as it would take away a bitching point.
Biden urged, begged...
"I would, in fact, make sure that there is, we immediate surge to the border, "
In 2012, the Pew Research Center’s National Survey of Latinos found that among Latino immigrants who are not U.S. citizens or legal permanent residents (and therefore likely unauthorized immigrants), some 31% identify as Democrats and just 4% as Republicans. An additional 33% say they are political independents, 16% mention some other political party and 15% say they “don’t know” or refuse to answer the question.

Are unauthorized immigrants overwhelmingly Democrats?
Will there be “an electoral bonanza for Democrats” if the nation’s estimated 11.1 million unauthorized immigrants are eventually granted the right to vote? The data provide some insights.

National Democrats often applaud efforts such as the expansion of mail balloting in blue states and allowing undocumented immigrants to obtain driver’s licenses. Their silence on New York City’s immigrant-voting law, however, likely reflects an ambivalence by the city’s own leadership and national advocates for immigration reform about both the political wisdom of the policy and its constitutionality.

The Voting-Rights Debate Democrats Don’t Want to Have
A progressive law in the nation’s largest city seems to be a step too far for national Democrats.
