Oh, it's more than that. Any district that has a registered voter that speaks a non-English language as their primary language is required by law to get a translator for that language, whatever it may be. Leads to major cities needing things like Farsi, Cambodian, Urdu, or French Creole to name a few. |
How would these people be able to vote in first place without knowing english? Here in Brazil it's nearly impossible to get citizenship and thus voting rights without full knowledge of portuguese. Having the ballouts in another language would be unthinkable, to say at least.
Edit - just read our constitution and perhaps you can get it without knowning portuguese, but considering you need 15 uninterrupted years here to acquire citizenship, one could argue it's near impossible. But people from countries speaking portuguese can get it very quickly, with one ininterrupted year.
