        : The laws are different for each state. Felons can #vote in some states but not others.

        Apparently, dead people vote in some states but that doesn't make it right.

        So you're saying by choosing to commit a felony crime, they chose to be punished by various penalties?

        pretty much every major city in the US is liberal. That's how big cities are. False correlation completely.

        When someone commits a felony, they SHOULD be barred from a lot of things, voting among them. Don't commit felonies.

        This is wrong. If they served their sentences they should have their voting rights restored.😡
