Almost all states do allow exconvicts to vote, but they may have to wait a certain period of time after release from custody/probation/parole.
“In 13 states felons lose their voting rights indefinitely for some crimes, or require a governor’s pardon in order for voting rights to be restored, or face an additional waiting period after completion of sentence (including parole and probation) before voting rights can be restored” [0]
Personally, I’ll be allowed to vote again in 2021.
