I am in Florida, a Conservative, and I voted in favor of the amendment. I believe that once a person has served their sentence or (in the case of a murder conviction or felony sexual assault) has their civil rights restored they should have the same franchise rights as other citizens.

I don’t think using the argument (which may not be true) that they are likely to vote for Democrats is a valid reason to take away their franchise rights forever.
