Original Note:
This statement is implying that non-citizens are able to vote in federal elections. That is false. The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 made this illegal in federal elections by updating Title 18 of the U.S. Code with Section 611. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/PLAW-104publ208/pdf/PLAW-104publ208.pdf https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/611
