Crikey! Check this part out.

Sec. 1402. RIGHTS OF CITIZENS

The right of an individual who is a citizen of the United States to vote in any election for Federal office shall not be denied or abridged because that individual has been convicted of a criminal offense unless such individual is serving a felony sentence in a correctional institution or facility at the time of the election.

This is nationwide enfranchisement of all convicted felons who are not actually incarcerated, including those still on probation or on parole.

Good grief! The criminal class is truly now the class of criminals.

I’m surprised that voting is limited to citizens.
