Aliens Vote

Sometimes the sites themselves say it best:
Even if you're a legal citizen of the US it's worth taking a peek at the site to check the statistics both on where people are originating from and, more importantly, how many votes have been cast. It's just getting started as a site so be sure to check on it with some regularity.
Here’s the deal - one out of every ten people living in the U.S. today is an alien. That’s 29.1 million people; equal to the entire population of New York & New Jersey combined...Because of this we decided to create Aliens Vote to see how this silent minority could sway the upcoming presidential election.So, while the votes may not count, it's a fascinating way to give voice to a huge chunk of people that otherwise would go unheard. Add to that the design is absolutely fantastic (it's a Cuban Council endeavor, I would expect no less).
