Hillary Clinton is enlisting undocumented “Dreamers” into a new voter registration drive aimed at signing up sympathetic voters with warnings that Donald Trump’s immigration plans could result in their deportation – though the Dreamers themselves cannot legally vote. Clinton's national voter registration program, called "Mi Sueño, Tu Voto/My Dream, Your Vote," was announced Sunday, on the four-year anniversary of the 2012 order that temporarily shielded from deportation some young immigrants brought to the country illegally as children
"DREAMers have played a pivotal role in our campaign, advocating for families who constantly live in fear of deportation — so we've created a program that aims to turn these stories into action," said Lorella Praeli, National Director of the Latino Vote.

Or will they pay less, since the workers are illegal.... oops, undocumented?
Judge Hanen’s ruling on the illegality of the amnesty was upheld by an appeals court, which likewise ruled that Mr. Obama likely broke the law. That ruling rose all the way to the Supreme Court, which deadlocked 4-4 in June, leaving the lower-court decisions in place
One of those actions was to expand his 2012 deportation amnesty, which granted young adult illegal immigrant Dreamers two-year work permits and stays of deportation. Under the expansion, the work permits and stays of deportation would last three years and would apply to millions of illegal immigrant parents, not just to Dreamers. Although most of the expansion was to begin in February 2015, the three-year permits were granted immediately to Dreamers already in line for two-year permits as of November. Texas led 25 other states in suing to stop the expanded amnesty, and government attorneys during the case repeatedly told Judge Hanen that none of the expanded program was in effect. In February, just days before the expanded amnesty was due to accept its first applications, Judge Hanen halted the entire program, ruling that Mr. Obama likely broke federal law. Weeks later, the Justice Department approached the judge and said it had been processing the three-year applications for Dreamers all along — and 108,000 had already been approved.

Like the Obama administration, the Clinton years will be filled with the same BS. Skirting the law, flaunting the law and rewriting laws to do what they want. Illegal? What illegals? These are undocumented workers, looking to fulfill their dreams on the backs of the American taxpayer and if you don't feel sorry for them, why you're a racist, xenophobic, blahblahblah........

After 15 Internships, I Can Finally Be Hired For Wages by Cindy Nava | Huffington Post In April 2012, I was accepted to the Obama Campaign Fellows program. I believed in the president’s commitment to change history and felt duty-bound to help him win re-election. But my support would come with a cost. After being selected, I had no option but to disclose my legal status, which was that of an undocumented immigrant student, or DREAMer. One of many students who met the general requirements for the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors Act.

Although laws vary from state to state, campaigning by political parties is typically banned at polling sites under voter intimidation laws.

Sorry to let you know that you can't. Their offense is a breach of civil regulations, not of criminal law. So you'd get arrested for kidnapping and holding a person against their will in turn. ((this is just me stating the facts, not liking them))
To be clear, the most common crime associated with illegal immigration is likely improper entry. Under federal criminal law, it is misdemeanor for an alien (i.e., a non-citizen) to: Enter or attempt to enter the United States at any time or place other than designated by immigration officers; Elude examination or inspection by immigration officers; or Attempt to enter or obtain entry to the United States by willfully concealing, falsifying, or misrepresenting material facts. The punishment under this federal law is no more than six months of incarceration and up to $250 in civil penalties for each illegal entry. These acts of improper entry -- including the mythic "border jumping" -- are criminal acts associated with illegally immigrating to the United States.
Some may assume that all immigrants who are in the United States without legal status must have committed improper entry. This simply isn't the case. Many foreign nationals legally enter the country on a valid work or travel visa, but fail to exit before their visa expires for a variety of reasons. But mere unlawful presence in the country is not a crime. It is a violation of federal immigration law to remain in the country without legal authorization, but this violation is punishable by civil penalties, not criminal. - See more at: blogs.findlaw.com...

Trump is looking to recruit "Election Observers"
Despite this..
Although laws vary from state to state, campaigning by political parties is typically banned at polling sites under voter intimidation laws.

Fundamentally he is hoping to put some hardcore bigots at the polls in the south to harass minorities. Despite it being illegal.
As far as Illegal Immigrants voting...
Voter Fraud comes with a 10K fine and five years in prison, and for any non-citizen...deportation after prosecution.
The claim that any illegal immigrant would take that risk for one vote is dumb.
The GOP fans these conspiracy claims because it allows them to pass legislation that disenfranchises legal voters.

There will be voter fraud by illegals aliens voting Democrat.
This is well documented and happens every election.
Identifying noncitizens on the voter rolls
In 2012, Florida’s Division of Elections put together a list of about 180,000 potential noncitizens based on driver license data.
The state later reduced that list to 2,600 --
and then again to about 200.
Amid multiple errors and problems, the state scrapped their effort as Election Day approached.
Shark attacks or voter fraud?
In 2012, we fact-checked a statement that alleged Florida had more incidents of shark attack than voter fraud. So we compared documented instances of sharks attacking human victims with voter fraud cases deemed legally sufficient for an investigation by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. We found more shark attacks.
