Original Note:
The poster is incorrect. There are several jurisdictions, including Washington, DC, that allow foreign nationals to vote. In addition, no state Constitution prohibits foreign voters in state election. An explicit ban on federal elections was only adopted in 1995. https://ballotpedia.org/Laws_permitting_noncitizens_to_vote_in_the_United_States https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/03/21/dc-noncitizen-voting-lawsuit/
