RNC Sues NYC Mayor Over Noncitizen Voting Law

January 10, 2022 Republicans, Trump cultists

The Republican National Committee (RNC) is suing New York City Mayor Eric Adams over the city law allowing noncitizens to vote in local elections. The RNC announced the lawsuit on Monday, with chairwoman Ronna McDaniel tweeting out the organization’s official statement.

“American elections should be decided by American citizens,” McDaniel said in the release. “If Democrats can subvert elections this flagrantly in America’s largest city, they can do it anywhere.”

The mayor said that after he spoke with colleagues and listened to their points of view, he decided it was “more important not to veto the bill or get in the way at all, allow the bill to move forward.”

Read the full article. The bill became law yesterday without Adams’ signature and his veto would likely have been overridden by the city council.
