18 U.S. Code § 611 - Voting by aliens
U.S. Code

(a)It shall be unlawful for any alien to vote in any election held solely or in part for the purpose of electing a candidate for the office of President, Vice President, Presidential elector, Member of the Senate, Member of the House of Representatives, Delegate from the District of Columbia, or Resident Commissioner, unless—
(1)the election is held partly for some other purpose;
(2)aliens are authorized to vote for such other purpose under a State constitution or statute or a local ordinance; and
(3)voting for such other purpose is conducted independently of voting for a candidate for such Federal offices, in such a manner that an alien has the opportunity to vote for such other purpose, but not an opportunity to vote for a candidate for any one or more of such Federal offices.
(b)Any person who violates this section shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than one year, or both.
(c)Subsection (a) does not apply to an alien if—
(1)each natural parent of the alien (or, in the case of an adopted alien, each adoptive parent of the alien) is or was a citizen (whether by birth or naturalization);
(2)the alien permanently resided in the United States prior to attaining the age of 16; and
(3)the alien reasonably believed at the time of voting in violation of such subsection that he or she was a citizen of the United States.

It is a violation of federal law for non-citizens to vote in the Presidential election except for non-federal positions if that is authorized by the state in which the election is being held.

Yup. the 30, 40,or 50 million illegals in the USA are in a quandary.

Should they follow the law and not vote and face deportation by Trump?

Or should they illegally vote for Biden and rely upon corrupt election officials and prosecutors to look the other way and do nothing to convict them of voter fraud?

However, it is against the law - federal law - to require someone PROVE they are citizens to vote. HUGE loophole!
