I came across an article about letting convicts have the right to vote again. The are in the works of passing the Democracy Restoration Act. I think it’s wonderful to let them vote again, according to the article it will raise the black population votes a lot and make a difference. Some of the facts are that:
- They will be restoring voting rights to 4.4 million people
- People who are on probation will never lose their right to vote
- Let people know of their rights upon release and inform them of things.
There are only 15 states that have done this, but it still leaves 35 states who are not willing to align with this act. What is so bad about letting people of out prison not haveing the right to vote? I cannot wait to see what will happen, it will better the world and it make better. Imagine if those 35 states are willing to change their voting rights. The world would be different.
