County Attorney Issues Registration Opinions on Citizenship Rules
County Attorney Connolly submitted to the county board clerk a set of opinions regarding voter registration. The first holds that any person whose father was validly naturalized is a US citizen if under 21 at the parent's naturalization, even without the father's papers. The opinion discusses Section 1210 of the political code, which requires the registry agent to question an applicant under oath and register if satisfied, or, if not satisfied or challenged, to administer specific questions under oath or affirmation.
