While I do believe that once people have served their time and made their restitution their voting rights should be restored, it certainly says something about your party that you assume ex felons are going to vote Democratic, doesn't it?
Where does it say anything about anyone voting for a specific party?
Why do you jump to such a conclusion?
Apparently, I'm smarter than you are
Not all felons are democrats.
Are you really going to stereotype that?
For example, roger stone is a felon. He won't vote democrat.
If they vote democrat what is the problem?
I am not a partisan hack. I'm an Independent. I've voted a variety of parties through the decades. I don't care how people vote. I care that they vote. I care that those who have paid their debt to society should get their voting rights restored. I'm happy that Bloomberg is helping those ex felons get their voting rights back. No matter how they vote.
Democracy needs people to vote. Not voting harms democracy and representative government. No matter what party a person votes for it's important for them to vote and have their voice at the ballot box.
Finally, countless people have given their lives so that we can vote. Women had to fight even more for the right to vote. I support everyone voting so that the sacrifices of those before us aren't for nothing.
Why do you have a problem with this? You should be happy that more people can vote.
Why aren't you happy about that?
