I was taught in Civics class in high school back in the early 70's that if you were convicted of a felony that you would no longer have the right to vote.

I believe it varies from state to state.

After you have served your sentence, you can petition the court to have your voting rights re-instated.

What do you think of Washington DC wanting to grant non-citizen residents the right to vote?
