Should foreigners, currently residing in the United States, have the right to vote?

Legal citizens should be allowed vote but there needs to be a better system for foreign experts working and paying taxes in Ireland to become citizens.

yes, if they have lived here for 5 or more years, have intent to remain here and pay taxes and/or grew up here

Yes any one living in the country for minimum 5 years, paying tax properly and not committed for any crime

Yes , if people who temporarily reside abroad and intend to come back to Ireland can use votal post too and if they plan on staying in Ireland longer than 5 year

Yes, anyone who is living in Ireland for longer than 8 years. Also if they pay taxed they are entitled to.

Yes, they can vote in local elections whilst paying taxes then after living in ireland for 5-10 years and showing understanding of irish politics they can vote in general elections

People who are living in Ireland should have a right to vote no matter their nationality. However people visiting should not.

If they are Irish citizens or have been living in Ireland for 10 years. they work, pay taxes, have kids in the system etc… and are part of the everyday Irish country then yes they have a right to vote if they aren’t a irish citizen but have been living in Ireland for 5 years they should be allowed to vote in local elections

Yes once they’ve been living her for over 10 or 5 plus year and have an understanding of what there voting for and looking into all parties and not just voting for themselves but for where there living and respecting other choice

Yes but only after living in the country for a year or more and having an understanding of the culture and political situation.

Yes but only if they have been paying taxes for 3 years, or if they have grown up/lived here and their parents have paid taxes for 3 years.

if the foreigner is from the EU they should be able to vote after a year If the foreigner has been paying taxes for 3+ years they should get a vote

if EU citizens and living there for minimum of 5 years and plan to spend the time their vote affects in ireland

Yes but only if they’ve been living in Ireland for a certain about of years and plan to live here longer

I believe, the grandchildren / 3rd generation of immigrants should be granted the right to vote as I feel this allows for a period of naturalisation

Yes, after living here for 1 year and planning to stay longer + if they're from an EU country they can only vote once in EU elections

Yes but only after living in the country 5 years and if they pay tax. They should then only be allowed to vote where applicable eg local and european elections for eu citizens

If these foreign residents are immigrants and have come here to settle, then yes they can and should have the right to vote.

We shouldn’t allow people who may not be staying in this country have a say in what is going to happen to it in the future.

I believe foreign residers should only be able to vote if they have approved citizenship in Ireland, have been living in the country for over 10 years, speak English well and can understand what they are voting for, and pay taxes. Otherwise, I don’t think they should have the right to vote.

Yes, but only if they have liced in the country for 6 months and then continue to live in the country for 6 months after.

Yes if they have been living in the country for over a year, and integrated into the culture of Ireland, understanding the weight of their choices when voting

i donnt rlly care

They should be allowed to vote once having an understanding of the electorial system and have been educated to the views of each party.

They should be living here for over a year and have proof of intention to remain here in some regard to register

After living in Ireland for like a year, just so they have a good enough understanding of whats it’s like living here. Like beta testing:)

They need to be citizens of Ireland

Somewhere between contributing to the state and having a general understanding of the ethos of elections

Yes but only if they can pass a test on the culture and language and have already been living in the country for 6 years

It depends on circumstances, if they are living in ireland and understand the political situation, then 100%, yes.

Do you believe that allowing foreigners to vote could enrich the political process? How so?

Could allowing non-citizens to vote in local elections change how policies affect the community?

Should the length of time a foreigner has lived in a country impact their right to vote there?

In what ways do you think the criteria for voting rights should differ between local and national elections?

yes but do a background check to make sure their intentions arent bad

If someone has lived in a country for a long time but isn't a citizen, should they have a say in how things are run?

i belive that people moving from a forgien contry shoulfnot have the right to vote right away but maybe after a couple of years of living here only if they are well educated on the topic

How do you think the involvement of foreigners in voting could impact the decisions made in local communities?

Why do you think some countries allow non-citizens to vote in certain elections, and should more countries adopt this practice?

Imagine living abroad; would you want the right to vote on local matters there, and why?

How would you feel if your neighbor, who's from another country, could vote on local issues in your town?

How do you think your local community would change if all residents, regardless of citizenship, could vote?
