San Francisco’s recent Proposition N, which voters passed 54 percent to 46 percent in 2016. The proposition allows particular undocumented immigrants (who are old enough and are the legal caretakers/parents of children in San Francisco under the age of 19) to vote in in School Board elections.

Several towns and cities in Maryland allow non-citizens to vote as well, with College Park becoming the largest U.S. municipality to let undocumented immigrants vote in municipal elections in 2017.
And then there is this:
"California has implemented a law providing for the automatic voter registration of motorists who obtain or renew driver's licenses, and critics contend that the law will make it easier for non-citizens to unlawfully vote."
"In February 2016, California officials announced that more than 600,000 undocumented people were granted driver’s licenses in 2015 (the first year after AB 60 took effect)."

And then there is this:
"Currently, 12 states and the District of Columbia allow noncitizens to obtain drivers licenses. Oftentimes, these illegal aliens are added to the voter rolls at the time they renew their drivers licenses without any attempt made on behalf of the government to verify their United States citizenship. Thus, this loophole in the system is part of the problem.
Furthermore, there is no information pertaining to state and local elections. The United States code says absolutely nothing about the inability of noncitizens to vote in these elections. This means that it is left up to the states to decide whether illegal aliens can vote in these races. As of 1926, every state across the country has outlawed noncitizen voting in state elections, but the same has not been done for local elections.
Proponents of noncitizen voting support places like San Francisco, College Park, and Cambridge, which are just a few of the many cities where noncitizens have the right to participate in American elections. These supporters argue that excluding the votes of illegal aliens on a state and national level is not constitutionally required by nor in line with historical norms, pushing for noncitizen voting across the country."
