Earlier, to vote in Indiana, foreign-born people had to become U.S. citizens, which required a five-year residency requirement. Under the new constitution, they were granted voting rights if they had reached the age of 21, stated their intention to become a citizen, and had lived in the United States for a year and in Indiana for at least six months.
