Incarcerated people vote in Canada and it's literally never been an issue. Nobody here cares.

Here's how it works in Australia: if you're due to be released during the term of a government, you get a say on who is part of that government, and you're required to vote in the election. We have mobile polling booths heading into the prisons every election.

Anyone in Australia serving a prison term of 3 years or less is required to turn out for voting in the May 18 election, and they're expected to receive their ballot papers just like the rest of us.

Incarceration is a suspension of involvement in society, a deliberate loss of personal rights and freedom. If we value the societal participation and freedom voting represents, it makes sense to not allow it while imprisoned

I realize that prison is supposed to be punishment but if we expect total isolation from society, how can we expect them to be functional members of society upon release?

I read that as "incinerated" and had serious questions about how to implement their voting at all.

Plus if incarcerated can't vote, each party has a corrupt incentive to incarcerate opponents supporters.

Weird how that works out, eh?

I would be concerned about the security of their vote, and their ability to stay informed, given what can be very arbitrary rules in various facilities.
