    I have to wonder, if you’ve been convicted of a felony, is voting at the top of your to do list?

    I’m sure they do a bit of that at San Quentin, but maybe they’ve already mailed their ballot in:).

    I’ve had mine in for a couple of weeks now(y).

    Felons incarcerated in Calif., or on probation, are not allowed to vote. So San Quentin is not an appropriate target here.

    ==
    Census.gov probably enumerates felons by state. Not obvious why that site is blocked here, but it is.

    Well said;).

    I’m the furthest thing from a felon. Even hard for me to go over the speed limit :oops:.

    Florida is one of four states that permanently takes away the right to vote for felons. So it covers people that had the punishment and probation finished in their past. A women interviews on NPR has been working on getting her voting rights back for decade.

    Now results begin to accumulate. One interesting point is that CNN video coverage, normally a subscription service, is free online for this event.

    Florida has passed felon voting restitution resolution. With certain restrictions.

    Beto O'Rouke won't cruz into Senate. Pretty close though, for an El Paso boy.

    As of 6 PM Wednesday in the world's most populous time zone :), a whopping number of votes have been cast for Senate (75,984,390) and House (95,395,920) candidates. Were this a political discussion we could consider R and D distributions. It might seem surprising.
