Woman Facing Deportation for Voting Illegally: 'I Was Confused'

Her ordeal began when she visited a state Department of Motor Vehicles office in 2005 to get a driver's license. She said she presented her Peruvian passport and her green card, and declined on a form to register to vote.

Although she was obviously not a U.S. citizen, she added, a clerk asked her if she wanted to register.

"I was confused," she recalled. "I ask him, 'Am I supposed to?' And he said, 'Well, it is up to you.'"

She said she looked at a voter registration form and marked "yes" next to a U.S. citizen box, unable to find one referencing what she was: a legal permanent resident.

After moving ahead with her citizenship application in 2007, Fitzpatrick said she freely told the immigration officer that she voted — not knowing she had done anything wrong. She had.

This has to be bullshit; because the liberal snowflakes have said that there is NEVER any illegal voting by illegals.
