My comment was about the restoration of voting rights and how they could affect employability. Being a felon is being a felon whether or not one’s voting right has been restored. The only thing that erases that, as far as I know, is a pardon. And yes, that felony conviction will always be a problem with respect to employability.
FTR, your comments appeared to cover more than just the voting question because you used the plural in reference to rights subsequent to addressing voting to you’re initial respondee.
Regardless, point taken. I actually have a pretty strict and succinct view of how crime should be managed. Non interactive substance abusers should just be left to their own devices and charity, middle road/mostly non confrontational and low level aggression items have shots for total redemption and then major violence/sociopath/pedophile level stuff either stays in for good or get chunked in the human recycle bin...
