Voter Eligibility

Voting eligibility is determined by U.S. citizenship and residency requirements set by law. While many Pacific Island communities have deep historical, cultural, and legal relationships with the United States, not all U.S.-affiliated statuses include the right to vote in federal, state, or local elections.

The table below provides a general overview of U.S. affiliation, citizenship status, and voting eligibility under current law.
