Protecting the Vote with Charlie Kolean
In this episode of Finding Freedom, host John Odermatt interviews Charlie Kolean, Texas State Director for Americans for Citizen Voting, about the movement to enshrine citizen-only voting laws in state constitutions. They discuss the importance of election integrity, the bipartisan support for these measures, and the challenges faced in passing such amendments.
Charlie shares insights on how non-citizen voting occurs at the local level, the strategies used to gain support across party lines, and the impact of these laws in various states. The conversation also touches on common misconceptions, the role of naturalized citizens, and practical advice for voters. Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of why protecting citizen-only voting is seen as a crucial issue for the future of the United States.
