Under the laws of the various states, the right to vote is almost universally limited to citizens of the United States. In expanding the definition of "political function", the Court reasoned that, as states have the authority to limit the political community, a state may exclude aliens from positions relating to "the right of the people to be governed by their citizen peers," particularly where the position involves discretionary decision-making or execution of policy. dosfan.lib.uic.edu /ERC/law/Covenant94/Specific_Articles/25.html   (6518 words)
