If a person has completed their sentence then all their rights should be restored. If their rights are not going to be restored at some point, then they have not completed their punishment. So don’t claim they have served their sentences if their rights are not restored. They are still being punished.
Crimes have consequences.
“If a person has completed their sentence then all their rights should be restored.”
If they can’t vote, and they are citizens, it is akin to Taxation Without Representation.
The alternative could be to make them exempt from paying taxes.
I agree but we know why McCullife is doing this.

Actually, I agree with this. I don’t like the “long strings attached” paroles that they give out, that can stretch for years. The real reason for this is that it saves bags of money. If society wants to limit the freedom of criminals and keep safe from them, then it should be willing to pay to lock them up and be responsible for them.
“I want my voting rights restored.”
“Sorry, but if you’re still being punished, then your sentence hasn’t been served, and you lose those rights.”
“So you’re telling me you can’t restore my rights because you haven’t restored my rights?”
“Yes, It’s called Catch-22.”
“That’s some catch, that Catch-22.”
“It’s the best there is.”

I agree with that...The law says their crimes have been paid for...It's just a pity they are mostly democrats...However, Trumps message of bringing jobs back to American may appeal to some them as well...
