All you needed to do was Google the question "Can Non-Citizens Vote in National Elections?" and you

would find several sources that explain why they can't...and how they would be discovered...and penalized for doing so...btw, most immigrants are smart enough not to risk such a move that could get them quickly deported.

Since you didn't take the few moments to make that simple inquiry, I've done it for you...see the linked article from the "Bipartisan Policy Organization"...for your and other's convenience, here are some relevant excerpts...
------------------
How do election offices verify voters’ citizenship status?

The process of verifying voter citizenship varies across the United States. The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 requires states to use a common voter registration form, which includes under penalty of perjury an attestation that the applicant is a U.S. citizen.

States verify voter identity and information using state and/or federal databases, such as the Social Security Administration or state departments of motor vehicles.[1] By cross-referencing information that the voter provides against information provided by these entities, election administrators can ensure that identifying information submitted on voter registration forms is accurate and legitimate. This hinders those who may attempt to register to vote using fraudulent or false information.

What are penalties for voting as a noncitizen? Does voting by a noncitizen affect their immigration status?

Illegally voting in a federal election can result in a fine and up to one year in federal prison. Additionally, a noncitizen found guilty of this crime may face deportation and revocation of their legal status under immigration law. Finally, falsely claiming U.S. citizenship for the purpose of registering to vote may also result in deportation or denial of future immigration status.

Deterrence is an important factor in ensuring compliance with voting laws. The consequences for breaking federal election law can have a profound effect on noncitizens. They could face prison time and deportation for illegal voting as well as denial of future immigration status, including naturalization. The risk of identification and punishment generally deters the behavior.

Have there been documented cases of noncitizens voting?

A BPC analysis of The Heritage Foundation’s Election Fraud Cases database found only 77 instances of noncitizens voting between 1999 and 2023.[2] A study conducted by the Brennan Center for Justice analyzing 23.5 million votes across 42 jurisdictions in the 2016 general election concluded that there were approximately 30 instances of noncitizens casting votes. Illegal voting, including by noncitizens, is routinely investigated and prosecuted by the appropriate authorities, and there is no evidence that noncitizen voting has ever been significant enough to impact an election’s outcome.
----------------

Based on previous discussions with you, this evidence will have zero effect...nonetheless, it serves as a ready reference for any others who try to perpetuate this falsehood of undocumented immigrants voting and affecting the 2024 election.
