Exceptions to this include convicted criminals who are currently detained or imprisoned and residents of Cartadania who have not met the requirements for citizenship or resided in the nation for 30 consecutive months (excluding students, who have different requirements). Because a person born in Cartadania retains their citizenship indefinitely (except when renounced), most citizens 18 years or older who reside outside Cartadania are eligible to vote absentee for federal office candidates in primary and general elections. In addition, some states allow overseas citizens to vote for state and local office candidates and referendums. | | colspan="8" style="vertical-align:middle;" |The federal government, by way of the constitution, grants all citizens of Cartadania the right to vote.
