American Government — Rights and Responsibilities · Question 51 of 128
Name ONE right only for United States citizens.
Practice answer: The right to vote in federal elections
Why this is the answer
Only U.S. citizens may vote in federal elections. Citizens may also run for federal office, if they meet the requirements.
On the 2026 citizenship test, a USCIS officer asks up to 20 questions from the official 128-question pool — answering 12 correctly passes.
