Who can vote in the U.S.?
Only citizens can vote in Federal, State, and most local elections. Lawful Permanent Residents (green card holders) cannot vote until they become naturalized U.S. citizens.
Who can register to vote in the U.S.?
Only U.S. citizens can register to vote. Do not vote if you are not a U.S. citizen, even if someone tells you that you can.
EXAMPLE OF A NO ID REQUIRED STATE: (BALLOTPEDIA) According to the Office of the California Secretary of State, "in most cases, California voters are not required to show identification at their polling place." A voter may be asked to provide identification at the polls if it is his or her first time voting (this requirement applies if the individual registered by mail without providing a driver's license number, state identification number, or the last four digits of a Social Security number)
.
So .. it's the honor system?
