He really shouldn't have ever voted in elections. His incompetence isn't a great excuse.
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

ENJOY EL SALVADOR, BITCH! May the leopards leave a clean, smiling skull.
Ah, a most delicious face for our good leopard friends.
Obviously you didn't love trump enough.
It's difficult to understand how a permanent resident would think he's a citizen and therefore eligible to vote.
I'm also questioning why the state of Kansas didn't verify his voter registration in any way.

The common theme is people who think they're the in-crowd bullying outsiders, discovering that no, they were never in the in-crowd, the in-crowd just told them they were for as long as it was convenient.
If you're even slightly any category of minority, and you vote Republican thinking that they'll count you as one of their own, then you've not paid attention in history class.

Somehow an elected government official doesn’t know a really basic law.

It's like ol' yeller
Aside from the main point of the article, how the fuck does it happen that someone votes since 1991 even though he's not eligible?
Does no one check that? Where I live, they have a list of people who can come to a vote in that specific region and unless you can present an official ID proving you're that person, you can't vote.
