Bill sayeth:
Then there were the 12000 mainly black voters whose registrations were disqualified incorrectly because they were allegedly felons, based on a database provided by a company whose parent company gave a six-figure contribution to the Republican Party - about 8000 of those people got back on the voter rolls, and probably not all of the other 4000 would have voted, but they were much more likely to have voted Democrat.
Where does it say in the Constitution or Bill of Rights that you become a second-class citizen if you commit a felony? You might lose the right to freedom for a period of time, but when that time is done why are you still without rights? Who says you lose those rights, state or fed? Has it been challenged? Seems a pretty bogus concept to me.
