IMO felons should not be allowed to vote.

wrong...once they have paid their penalty, they should be returned to society. A kid who shoplifts a T.V. at 18 is not the same person as the 55 year old business owner with 4 kids and a wife of 35 years who is worth 6.5 million dollars.....

No one ever pays their penalty. There is no payback. There is no reciprocity and shoplifting does not net you a felony.

I don’t care if lots of people do not get to vote. I don’t care if a majority do not get to vote.

But I can compromise! No voting for 20 years after you leave prison....
