Voting rights in the United States, specifically the enfranchisement and disenfranchisement of different groups, has been a moral and political issue throughout United States history. Eligibility to vote in the United States is governed by the United States Constitution and by federal and state laws. Several constitutional amendments (the Fifteenth, Nineteenth, and Twenty-sixth specifically) require that voting rights of U.S. citizens cannot be abridged on account of race, color, previous condition of servitude, sex, or age (18 and older); the constitution as originally written did not establish any such rights during 1787–1870, except that if a state permitted a person to vote for the "most numerous branch" of its state legislature, it was required to permit that person to vote in electio

  • Le droit de vote aux États-Unis est régi par un ensemble de législations fédérales et des États fédérés. À l'indépendance, chacun des États fondateurs disposait de sa propre législation en le composant, y compris pour les élections fédérales. Cette autonomie des États existe toujours, mais est strictement encadrée par un certain nombre de textes constitutionnels et législatifs fédéraux. Les différences existant actuellement entre les États en matière de droit de vote portent surtout sur deux aspects : la déchéance du droit de vote à la suite d'une condamnation pénale et le droit de vote des étrangers.

  • لطالما كانت مسألة حقوق التصويت الأمريكية –وتحديداً حق الانتخاب والحرمان منه عند مجموعات مختلفة– محل خلاف طوال تاريخ الولايات المتحدة. تُطبَّق أهلية التصويت في الولايات المتحدة من خلال دستور الولايات المتحدة وقانون الولاية. تنص العديد من التعديلات الدستورية (وخصوصًا رقم 15 و19 و26) أن حقوق التصويت لا يمكن تمييزها تبعًا للعرق أو اللون أو حالة العبودية السابقة أو الجنس أو السن لمن هم فوق 18 عامًا. لم يصيغ الدستور بشكله الأصلي أي من هذه الحقوق خلال عامي 1787 و1870.
