I hope 100,000 votes can't change the race in Tennessee.
Ladies and gentlemen, the Democrat base.
BUMP
They're registering themselves?
I suspect most "ex felons" are ex felons for a reason. In my case it's because I became more conservative and my voting record reflects that. These days I'm a strict law and order conservative. Oddly enough other former felon FReepers seem to feel the same way and there are a lot more of us than you may think.
Frankly a current felon couldn't care less about voting one way or the other. Maine is the only state that allows incarcerated people to vote and in my opinion that's a horrible idea. You have to figure that a man in prison will vote just to change the pace for a day and he will likely vote for the candidate most willing to give him a break.
However this is an issue for the residents of your state to decide. I just wanted to give you a bit of an insider opinion on it.
BTW my crime was drunk driving.
No such thing as an ex-Felon. Just an ex-con.
vislack signed his executive order restoring voting rights for felons in Iowa on July 4th, 2005, yup, Independence Day...:|
Let's leave their race out of this.
Every vote should count, at least RAT votes count twice!
