What do New Yorkers think about letting noncitizens vote in city elections?

New Yorkers were two-minded about a new measure that would grant almost a million noncitizens the right to vote in citywide elections.
Another lifelong New Yorker opposed the measure, saying, "I do not agree with it. Why should they? They're not from here."
The New York City Council passed legislation Thursday to allow nearly 800,000 legal noncitizens who have lived in the city for over 30 days to vote in local elections. It would apply to green-card and work-permit holders as well as those within Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA).
