Bonnie Anne Cox Explains Non-Citizen Vote Court Ruling

Conspiracy or controversy? Or both? The court just ruled New York City’s provocative resolution allowing non-citizens to vote unconstitutional. What does that mean for the rest of the state? Click the link below for this week’s episode of The State of Greater Western New York Report to see why things aren’t quite the same in 2024, and what that means to Congressional Districts in the Greater Western New York Region.

Bobbie Anne Cox of Cox Attorneys returns to the show to explain this surprising ruling. She first takes us through the thought process of the New York City Council. Then she leads us through the labyrinth of the New York State court system.  Finally, she shows what the ruling means to us beyond New York City.

In the second half of the show, Cox dives into the difficulty of restraining the “catch me if you can” attitude of a one-party state. She also warns why litigation cannot be seen as a savior and what must be done instead.
