Canadians with American citizenship can vote in American elections.

If you discover that it is (or becomes) allowed, will you immediately resolve the market? Or will you wait until 2029 to resolve?

If it switched from allowed to not-allowed before the close date (e.g. you read an article in 2024 explaining that it is allowed in one small jurisdiction, and then in 2029 hat jurisdiction repeals it), would you resolve it as "NO" due to the final tate of the question, or "YES" based on the fact it was allowed at one point?

Yeah, this is already legal.

"The District of Columbia and municipalities in three states allowed noncitizens to vote in local elections as of June 2023: California, Maryland, and Vermont."

This includes San Francisco, New York City, and communities in Maryland and Vermont.โ€, so maybe this is already true
