I don’t want someone drifting through town in the local motel to be able to meaningfully vote to change the city I am rooted in.

Why would someone actually "drifting through" even bother voting? The odd weirdo might but that's not going to tip any elections.

Even most long term residents legally entitled to vote don't make the effort.

I'm talking about people who live in the city for years.
