There seems to be a confusion between the terms representation and voting rights.

You're right. I vote, but none of those bastards actually represent me.

Not sure there is confusion at work. Legal non-citizen immigrants cannot vote in national elections.

And usually not in local ones, either, according to the US Customs & Immigration Service: "There are very few jurisdictions where a non-U.S. citizen may vote in a local election."
