I’m a former felon (failure to appear) and I’m a Goldwater/Reagan Guerrilla free marketeer. In Michigan you regain the vote as long as you aren’t incarcerated on parole or probation.

Frankly I think the fantasy that people sit in prison and dream about the day they get to vote makes global warming seem sane in comparison.

I wasn’t interested in voting till I settled my life and chose to be a responsible person. At the end of the day its up to the states. I do think the idea of some states letting prison inmates vote is idiotic. Inmates will vote just for a change of pace and they’ll vote for whoever promises them the most.

It must be up to the States and that is where it should be decided as the Pauls would naturally support. In this, not sure why Senator Rand is speaking about it, I’ll reread the article. Thank you for your response.
