The 1st amendment specifically states that free speech, free press, assembly and grievance cannot be abridged and the second amendment specifically states that the right to bear arms shall not be infringed.

If the constitution stated that the right to vote cannot be abridged or shall not be infringed the comparison between the right to vote and the right to bear arms or free speech would be valid but since the constitution does not state that, the comparison is invalid.
