CAMPBELL, Calif.—A naturalization ceremony is an event of great importance to immigrants who’ve just become U.S. citizens. It’s also a great opportunity for political parties to register these new citizens, who’ve just gained the right to vote.
The Heritage Theatre in Campbell, California, hosts naturalization ceremonies on the fourth Tuesday of every month. At one such ceremony, on Nov. 26, two booths outside the theater worked to register new voters as Democrats and Republicans respectively.
