Who can vote in federal elections, run for federal office, and serve on a jury?

U.S. citizens.

  1. U.S. citizens ✔
  2. All permanent residents
  3. Anyone living here one year

Why: Voting in federal elections, running for federal office, and jury service are for U.S. citizens. Permanent residents (green card holders) cannot do these.

Huh, didn't know that: The right to a jury trial is protected by the 6th and 7th Amendments.
