Constitutional Amendment/Citizens-Only Voting.
This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to North Carolina that would restrict voting rights exclusively to United States citizens who are at least 18 years old. The legislation does not change the current law immediately but instead places the amendment on the ballot for the November 5, 2024, general election for voters to decide. If approved by a majority of voters, the change would permanently update the state constitution to ensure only citizens can vote in any election. If voters reject the proposal, the amendment will not take effect and the current voting rules will remain unchanged.
