The deal here in California with Senate Bill SB60 is that people who are here ILLEGALLY can get a California Drivers License by showing minimal personal documentation. It doesn't give anyone automatic citizenship, but it does give people who have broken the law by coming into this country illegally a benefit that used to be reserved for legal US citizens. Illegals had this benefit until '94, but was changed in '94.
One of the central issues is that when applying for the CA drivers license, applicants are offered the opportunity to register to vote (Motor Voter). It's illegal in CA to vote or register to vote unless you're a US citizen, but the CA Democratic Party has legitimized this in the hopes that the newly registered illegal immigrant drivers will register to vote, illegally, as a Democrat and vote, illegally, for the Democratic Party candidate in the future. With 3-4 million illegal aliens in California, that's a lot of new (illegal) voters for very little work.
You're probably asking how can the CA Registrar of Voters let these people vote? It's funny, but voter residency is checked via snail mail. With their new CA drivers license, these illegals can now rent, for cash, a mail box. Their still illegal, but they get to vote, illegally. Also, the CA Registrar of Voters CANNOT use CA DMV information to check if the newly registered voters are legal. Only if the snail-mailed post cards come back "Return to Sender, Address Unknown" will the illegally registered voters be removed. By then the election is over and the Democrats win the election...by 3-4 million illegal votes.
I'm biased as I'm against SB60 because it it legitimizes scofflaws, but get more info here from The Sacramento (CA) Bee at
