Something is not right here. Please back up for me.

How do you unknowingly vote in a local election illegally? Are you saying that his voter registration was accepted and he was allowed to vote despite the fact he is not a citizen? Or that he knowingly misrepresented his citizenship status on the voter registration form and thereby committed an act of perjury-which is the real problem behind why he is facing deportation? It's really difficult to plead no intention to defraud after that, regardless of what he freely admits.

And yet, your son was savvy enough to know, or you and your husband taught him, that he was required to register for the draft? Did he know or did you impart to him when and how Mom and Dad became eligible to vote?

The 26th Amendment does not extrapolate to your son's situation. Voting rights were extended to legal citizens between 18 and 21.

You need an attorney to help with the appeal, not a petition.
