Small towns are rough man. People will run as both the dem and republican candidate in my town and you can’t vote in town meetings if you aren’t a property owner
I was so sure your town was doing something unconstitutional because it sounded so blatantly wrong. Found the answer and man, your state needs to sort that shit out.
Fwiw, a few MA towns are going the other way: pushing the state to allow noncitizens to vote in TM.
Yeah town was founded around the Civil War and I suspect that has something to do with the way it is now. Had a brief klan revival in the 80s and 90s, and, given the size, hitting way above our weight for number of people arrested for january 6

Small towns need to be made a bit smaller, so they stop being cesspits.
Where is this? Outside of HOA nonsense, I thought property ownership died as a requirement in the 1800’s.
I guess the slightly less doxx-y question is: what states still allow that crap?
