Actually, I kinda think it's bullshit that a felon can't vote.
For instance, I have a friend who is a very successful guy. Big in the community where he lives. Gives to charities. Sponsors a little league baseball team and is always giving money to local causes.
BUT...back in the early 1980's he was arrested dealing blow. He was 19 years old at the time.
Fast forward 30 years. He finally had to pull every string he had to get the governor of his state to issue him a pardon a few years back so he no longer had a felony conviction on his record.
It kept him from doing a lot of things...including voting.
Seems like that should be unconstitutional.
