The Rev.
David Boase, a long-term and legal
permanent resident of the United States, made
one mistake years ago. He voted in a
local election which happened to include “a
single federal Democratic candidate”
on the ballot.
Boase had
been given a voter’s registration at the Illinois
DMV, despite his “two forms of British
identification.” This led him to believe that
voting “to boost fire-protection resources
for the local fire department” would be okay.
Eleven years
later, Boase honestly disclosed this one vote
when questioned by authorities from U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Although he has otherwise been a sterling
community member, Boase will soon be deported
back to his native England. There were no
other “aggravating factors,” just that one “lone
vote.”
