	ThePrincesTale picked Yes: link In the US, it varies quite a lot from state to state. Laws include: - Unrestricted voting rights, even in prison (only Maine and Vermont) - Voting rights restored upon release - Ends after parole or probation (I've tried to describe this in the "No, not for a certain period of time" option) - Various arrangements that require ex-felons to individually apply if they want their voting rights restored: petitioning a court (Nevada), applying to the state governor (Wyoming, Kentucky, Virginia), a hearing before the Board of Executive Clemency (Florida), or a two-thirds vote of both houses of the legislature (for crimes including theft, forgery, perjury, embezzlement and bigamy in Mississippi). posted più di un anno fa. last edited più di un anno fa

	Scroogefan1867 picked Yes: Not matter the crime, as a citizen of a country, they do have the right to vote. A leader is selected by majority decision and it would be unfair to leave out ex-felons. posted più di un anno fa.
