One law. One Page. Undocumented not allowed to vote in state or local elections. Part 33.

In 1996, the U.S. Congress passed a federal immigration enforcement bill called the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act (IIRAIRA). Section 611 of IIRAIRA criminalized noncitizen voting in federal elections, but the law did not explicitly prohibit noncitizens from voting in state or local elections in accordance with state constitutions and local ordinances

So far, no state has openly allowed illegals to vote in state elections, but at least 11 have no impediments against voting statewide.
