Should someone convicted of voter fraud be allowed to vote?
But I think the laws in some U.S. states do actually allow felons to vote under certain circumstances.
- jakelazaroff 1y ago> Should someone convicted of voter fraud be allowed to vote? Yes. Why shouldn't they?
- falcor84 1y agoAbsolutely. And in prison it should be easier to verify that they vote just once
- RiverCrochet 1y agoThis is like requiring a stranger that attempted to break into your house be forcibly allowed on your property later against your wishes (assuming you rationally consider such a person untrustworthy and no mitigating circumstances or other data exists that would make you consider them trustworthy)
- jakelazaroff 1y agoIt's not like that at all! There's no right to enter a stranger's house in the first place.
- dylan604 1y agoI just looked this up earlier, and there are only 2 states that do. Vermont and Maine allow all prisoners to vote. Other states allow some depending on conviction. I was unaware of this. I was aware some states allow felons to vote once released while other states never reinstate that right. That is some heinous shit. No other way to put it
