Are all the felons black?

Felons on juries can make prosecutions VERY difficult.

Criminals, illegals, ‘elites’ who never earned a dime and commies ARE the democrat base.

“”Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger announced on Friday that her administration has restored voting rights for more than 66,000 felons since taking office in January. “”

***

In a... not even perfect world, just a normal, sane world... this would be a Babylon Bee article. However, the reality is much worse than any satire one could dream up and use to mock.

The reality is... the Democrats are openly declaring their treasonous nature against America, as founded (constitutionally)... and arrogantly even admitting via their actions... that they cater to and are on the side of criminals... because they are criminals. If they had even a glimmer of an idea that those 66,000 criminals wouldn’t vote ‘for’ the Democrats, this would not be happening.

I hope that the sane and even borderline sane voters of America are paying attention and taking notes on these actions... and will reflect their opinions on these shenanigans this November and in 2028. If they don’t... it’s possible that the inmates will take over and run the asylum into the ground, once again. And the next time, America may not survive.

“...Virginia is one of three states that strips convicted felons of their right to vote...”
-
That is simply not true.
Most states do that until completion of their sentence.

Can you just override a law like that by fiat?!

The law had nothing to do with race.

No matter, recidivism will save the day.

Sorry, but I support this.

Felons should have all their rights restored after their sentence is served. If they are too dangerous to have a gun, or vote, they should still be in jail.

Anybody wanna bet how likely it is that one of these new "voters" will be one of HER neighbors?

Hopefully, they are too busy committing new crimes to find the time to vote. And how many of these felons are illegal alien?

Many years ago, Ann Coulter said in one of her columns, “Islam is a death cult.”

Nowadays, I think that applies to Liberalism.

These people are maniacs. Lunatics.

In order to atone for Virginia's Jim Crow past (under the Democrat party), a number of felons will have their voting rights restored posthumously.

A collateral consequence of being convicted of a felony is the loss of right to vote. Spanberger is lying. This result is not a racist by product of Jim Crow. It is a common practice throughout the USA.
