Being naturalized means to become a citizen if you haven't been born in this country...therefore, if your parents are really naturalized citizens, then they would be allowed to vote.

First right of citizenship:

The right to vote.

You are a citizen only if you are born in the country. Green card holders are NOT US citizens. I was born in Ireland and stayed there for less than 6 months but I am still classified as an Irish citizen.
