Voting
One of the most important privileges of democracy in the United States of America is the right to participate in choosing elected officials through voting. As a Permanent Resident you can only vote in local and state elections that do not require you to be a US citizen. It is very important that you do not vote in national, state or local elections that require a voter to be a US citizen when you are not a US citizen. There are criminal penalties for voting when you are not a US citizen and it is a requirement for voting. You can be removed (deported) from the US if you vote in elections limited to US citizens.
what the heck?? so if i made a mistake of voting and then they're like HOW DARE YOU VOTE, YOU'RE NOT EVEN A CITIZEN, YOU OFFEND US, NOW YOU MUST LEAVE!!!!

I suspect that they are talking about people who purposefully vote even though they know they are not supposed to. And the gov't will be afraid of a whole voting Block (say Mexican immigrants). And this allows from them to deport them in a legal way.
I don't think that they are talking about peeps like you who may make a mistake.
But I'm just guessing.
Justin.
