This case should be dismissed. Ex-con enfranchisement has nothing to do with the 19th Amendment.

So, because they did something that put them into a bad situation, the rest of us have to suffer from MORE of their bad decisions?

Get two jobs to repay your fines, but don’t screw the rest of us because they already screwed up their lives!

I’ll bet you they voted in the last election anyway.

“The state should not be allowed to implement a felony re-enfranchisement scheme that creates an illusory right to vote for a subset of its citizens."

The state has not done this, so this is just posturing.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Poof. The courts can't even determine that an unborn human baby is actually human. The courts aren't worth a bucket of warm spit, starting with SCrOTUS.

...their criminal records prevent them from getting jobs that would pay enough for them to satisfy restitution orders...
******************************************
That is a very strange allegation.
I wonder how large the restitution is. I can think of embezzlement schemes where the restitution would be $500,000. Well, it would take $25,000 per year for 20 years BEFORE interest.
So why is it my fault (or someone else’s fault) if the crime was so large that they haven’t (or can’t) make restitution?

The 19th Amendment does NOT give women the right to vote. The language is quite clear and unambiguous: It prohibits denying the right to vote based on the sex of the voter. In other words, it requires that women (as a class) shall have all the same voting rights as men (as a class.) And vice versa, for that matter. So it would make just as much sense to (wrongly) claim that the Amendment gives men the right to vote.

Were that not the case, the text of an Amendment that literally said "Females shall not be denied the right to vote" (which is what idiots apparently think the text of the 19th Amendment means) would require that female babies who can't read, write nor speak be allowed to vote. That's clearly not what it means, and clearly not the original intent.

the 19th amendment ... our nation’s biggest mistake ...

[Verginius Rufus]

The Fourteenth Amendment recognizes a state’s right to deny the vote to male citizens for “participation in rebellion, or other crime.” It doesn’t say anything about women since they were not allowed to vote anywhere in the US when the amendment was written.

[Ouderkirk]

what incentive is there to complete the restitution if their rights are restored? That’s the reward for completion...if your rights actually meant something to these to dopey broads.
