Florida Felons Can't Vote Afterall - xuenchen - 07-16-2020 Looks like the Supreme Court has allowed a lower court ruling to stand. Another lower court previously allowed felons to register and vote, but that was halted by a different court. Now the SCOTUS says felons can't vote !! Well how about somebody making sure they don't vote anyway especially in some of those Florida Counties that have long histories of fraud and convenient mistakes. Naturally the "Liberal" Justices dissented (shocking). So if Felons do vote fraudulently, they commit another Felony anyway !! Quote:The U.S. Supreme Court declined on Thursday to overturn a federal appeals court’s decision that blocked some Florida felons’ eligibility to participate in elections — a major blow to efforts to restore voting rights to as many as 1.4 million people in the battleground state.

RE: Florida Felons Can't Vote Afterall - Ninurta - 07-17-2020 I'm with Beez and Hounddoghowlie on this. If your time has been served and your parole is completed, you should have all of your rights restored. Anything less amounts to a life sentence, and if you are under a life sentence, you have no business being out on the streets with the rest of us anyhow. With that said, this ruling was against felons who have not yet paid their fees or fines, meaning that their terms of parole have not yet been satisfied. They are still under sentence until they satisfy their terms of parole, and so should NOT be allowed to vote. I also think that any citizen banned from voting should also be exempt from paying taxes. Otherwise, it is taxation without representation, since they are banned from choosing their representation. We fought a whole war over that concept quite some time ago. .
