Election Day: Border and Cast Ballots

election day: Neither Del Cueto nor Trump offered evidence to back up the idea immigration officials are taking action to allow people who have recently crossed the border to cast ballots on Election Day, according to CTV. A union spokesman later acknowledged the discussion was misleading. In a round table on border security, Trump responded to comments from Art Del Cueto, a vice-president for the National Border Patrol Council, who told the candidate that officials in the U.S. are being directed to ignore immigrants' criminal histories and speed up citizenship applications. "They are letting people pour into the country so they can go ahead and vote," the Republican presidential candidate responded, saying it would be ignored by the media. Newly admitted immigrants are not permitted to vote, a right that is reserved for citizens. His latest provocative claim comes as Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton are increasingly focused on their second debate, a town-hall style confrontation Sunday night. Trump has repeatedly said he fears the election will be rigged and has made a hard-line stance on immigration a centerpiece of his campaign. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
