[EL] equal numbers of VOTERS, rather than residents - let noncitizens vote?

It was practiced.  I believe that Arkansas permitted non-citizens to vote as late as 1926

"One way to encourage people, particularly those in the "west," to
feel that they were Americans was to allow non-citizens to vote if they
intended to become citizens."

That's really interesting. For how long did that go on? Or was it just
an argument, but not implemented?
