Not one to bicker, really!, but it seems the 19th amendment says it is a right. Of course the government can limit, or restrict, rights (felon voting, etc.).
If I remember correctly (not that I was there or anything), when the constitution was first ratified, only property owners could vote. Lots of people were left out of the loop at the time. Am I remembering my history correctly?
Where is the word President in that Amendment?
Neal's statement was that voting for President is not a right. He is right.
This letter writer makes another mistake. He constantly refers to "the right to vote." Those are not the words I use.The point being that individuals vote for Electors that meet in Washington DC to vote for the President in accordance with various processes, methods or procedures of the separate States.I'm referring to "the right to vote in a presidential election."
No individual citizen has the right to vote for the President.
