Elon Musk, in a post, said that 2024 would be the last election “actually decided by US citizens,” as he blamed the influx of illegal immigrants with voting rights and stirred debate on citizenship status in the census.

Elon Musk blames the “influx” of illegal immigrants who are now able to vote for his prediction that the 2024 presidential election would probably be the last to be won by US residents.

The billionaire South African was responding to news that Republicans in the House of Representatives had passed a bill requiring citizenship status to be included in the ten-year census, over objections from the White House, in remarks posted on his social media platform, X.

In response to reports that Democrats opposed the plan and voted along party lines on Wednesday, Mr. Musk stated on Thursday, “Unanimous Democrat opposition to requiring citizenship for apportionment of House seats and Presidential electoral college votes says it all.”

“The Democratic Party’s goal is to disenfranchise US citizens by importing as many illegal immigrants as possible.

“Given the massive influx of illegals from every country on Earth, 2024 will probably be the last election decided by US citizens,” he claimed.

Additionally, as reported by GreatGameIndia, during a rally in Reno, Nevada, while attacking the immigration policies of Joe Biden, Trump vowed the largest deportation in American history if elected. This further fuels the debate surrounding immigration policies and their implications on national elections.

Mr. Musk frequently posts a range of political opinions using his platform.

Though he supported Joe Biden in 2020, he has publicly criticized the President’s immigration policies, particularly about the US-Mexico border. However, he has also called for the President to expedite and simplify the legal immigration process.

The GOP’s position that immigration is out of control, especially in the southwest, seems to be more prevalent in this most recent post, which is why they are pushing for the legislation that will be put to a vote on Wednesday.

The Equal Representation Act was introduced to improve the fairness of the process used to assign congressional seats.

At the moment, figures are determined by taking into account the entire population of a state, which includes non-citizens, utilizing information from the decennial census.

GOP lawmakers hope to utilize the data from the inclusion of citizenship status on the form to exclude non-citizens from the population figures used to calculate congressional seats.

“We should not reward states and cities that violate federal immigration laws and maintain sanctuary policies with increased Congressional representation,” House Speaker Mike Johnson said after Wednesday’s vote.

“Common sense dictates that only American citizens should be counted for electoral apportionment, and the Equal Representation Act ensures that.”

Democratic-leaning areas like New York and California as well as more Republican-leaning states like Texas and Florida, which have the largest concentrations of immigrants, could be impacted.

Even though the bill was intended to address congressional seat distribution, Mr. Musk connected it to the voting rights of non-citizens.
