The 27 amendements are part of the constitution. What do you mean the right to vote is not in the constitution? Do you mean it is not in the bill of rights(first 10 amendments)?
Sweetwuzzy,
There is nothing in the Constitution or the Bill of Rights or any of the other Amendments that says anything about a "right" to vote.

Most of the Amendments dealing with voting are there to secure and protect the ability of those who are entitled/eligible to vote to do so without problems due to race or sex. But no clause or amendment states that any of us have a "right" to do so!
