Yes I think that they should still have that option...I really never understood why they couldn't vote...thats crazy...maybe...hey maybe because a large percentage of ppl with felonies are black or non-white ppl. They never really likes the fact that we could vote anyways. Who passed that law maybe a republician. They know that majority of non whites vote democratic. But hey I don't vote so I don't know

I have mixed feelings about it, However, I just have a sneaky suspicion that the repubs don't want felons to vote b/c they will mostly vote democrat

I believe every citizen should have the opportunity to vote. Who gave the Supreme Court the "right" to shiat on "OUR" democracy? A change is in order. I'm feed up. I'm not a Democrat or a Republican, but this last administration has not brought peace in this world any closer to any of us.

No. Voting is a privilege, not a right. You commit a felony, and you have given up the privilege.

YES IF THE FELON DID HIS TIME AND HAS BEEN DISCHARGED FROM PAROLE THEN THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO VOTE IF NOT THEN THEY SHOULD NOT BE TAXED. TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION, THIS IS WHY WE ARE NOT CONSIDERED A PART OF THE UK TODAY.
