Original Note:
NYC passed legislation to allow non-citizens to vote in local elections, which is being challenged in court: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/09/nyregion/noncitizens-nyc-voting-rights.html However, for federal and state elections only US citizens over 18 can vote: https://www.usa.gov/who-can-vote The US Constitution requires this for some elections and can't easily be changed: https://www.loc.gov/classroom-materials/elections/right-to-vote/who-can-vote-today/
