Let's debate like it's 1996 again. As we ready ourselves to vote in November in the most important election this country has seen in decades the politicians in Washington are wrangling over weather the newly sworn immigrant will be allowed to vote. The ceremony for the new citizens is in October. According to MSNBC the administration is being accused of slowing the process of approving immigrants for citizenship. This is the opposite of the 1996 charge that the administration was accelerating citizenship to influence the election.
Another Article asks "Will new citizens be an election factor?" There are a total of 820, 000 new citizens between the states of Colorado and Florida. Colorado is where the Democrats are holding their convention in August. Many of these voters cannot speak either English or Spanish well.
