YES -- but I also honestly believe people in jail should have the right to vote because they're among the most vulnerable of us, and they should have a say in how our country legislates -- and incarcerates.

Folks on probation/parole should also have the right to vote immediately upon exit of prison, but many of those people are permanently disenfranchised, especially federal offenders.

Actually, people in jail should be able to vote.

I think so too. Otherwise, they shouldn't be counted in a congressional district.

I'm not sure, but I certainly don't agree with the asymmetry where felons can run for office but not vote.
