Joe Ceballos — a longtime Republican and the mayor of the small Kansas town of Clearwater — is now confronting felony voter fraud charges and the possibility
How did he get a ballot if he’s not eligible to vote? At least in my state, you have to sign the voter register that has your name pre-printed. I suppose Kansas is different.
Right, that’s what these crazies always forget - register to vote is where your eligibility to vote should be verified, and there are ways to do that without suppressing votes
Interesting, apparently it’s only since 1996 that non-citizens voting became a crime, and that only applies to federal elections …. Then there’s whatever citizenship law Kansas tried to pass was ruled unconstitutional
Historically people in his situation were treated like human beings and immigration enforcement of a contributing member of society was civil, compassionate, and had due process routes to legality or at least to transitioning your life without hardship
So this guy was not committing a crime assuming he registered to vote more than 30 years ago, the state failed in their duty to check eligibility, and he might still be able to legitimately vote for himself

I suspect he registered to vote, and for whatever reason, the county/state failed to discover that he’s not a citizen and approved his registration.
This seems to be the exact scenario that MAGA is screaming over. Lol every accusation is an admission.
