If convicted of a felony the felon must have their rights reinstated once they have shown they are eligible to do so depending on the state. Currently Alabama, Kentucky, Virginia and Florida do not allow former felons to vote period.
Things could change because records show former felons do tend to vote democrat as most are minorities and with democrats gaining power you may see some challenges to the 14th Amendment which gives states the right to ban certain people from voting.

as quickly as criminals are released from reformatory, they DO HAVE a easy risk to discover a role. while they're released from reformatory.........they're seen via rational people to have served despite the fact that sentence the regulation prescribes. They they're seen "rehabilitated" via Democrats. As brokers FOR the generic public, Courts' lawsuits ARE pubic checklist. in the event that they're released from reformatory, then they have been given a wreck the regulation demands and which they did no longer earn. Having to triumph over their offender historic past is their very own damned situation they chosen to have. If ex-convicts won't be able to discover jobs.......they're going to dedicate crimes like theft IF AND provided that they actually nevertheless BELONG in reformatory. Unemployment does not reason crime; the determination to dedicate against the regulation does. needless to say, you could go away your babies interior the palms of a convicted new child molester, or do you concede your theory is with out advantage? I surely do no longer see a third determination.
