Daily Leader Biography
- Position:
- Con to the question "Should Felons Who Have Completed Their Sentence (Incarceration, Probation, and Parole) Be Allowed to Vote?"
- Reasoning:
-
“Although far too few people exercise it, voting is a sacred right belonging to all law-abiding citizens. When citizens become no longer law-abiding, it is necessary to take their voting rights away….
Why should a convicted felon – who has broken at least one law serious enough to warrant the loss of his voting rights – have an easy path to voting rights restoration?”
