Ballots in six states include measures on bans affecting noncitizen voting. The measures address whether people who are not U.S. citizens may cast ballots in elections.

The measures are on ballots, but the states involved, the election date and the exact language voters will see are not identified here. Those details determine whether the proposals would change state law, local rules or constitutional language.

What the measures address

The issue is voting by noncitizens. A ban would restrict that participation, but the scope of each measure cannot be described without its text.

What happens next

Voters will decide the measures through the ballot process. Election officials will administer the vote and later record the results. The outcome of any individual measure is not established here.

The Kiowa County Press reported the six-state development. No primary election record is linked here.

What to watch

  • The exact text of each ballot measure.
  • Which elections and jurisdictions each measure would cover.
  • Official election results after voting concludes.
