All I know is how things are done in Canada. You never lose your right to vote up here, and I don't think you ever should lose your right to vote. It's the cornerstone of democracy. Given how trumped up the war on drugs is and the net-widening that has occurred, it strikes me as wrong that so many people, particularly the poor and disadvantaged lose their right to vote.
That doesn't mean that politicians are pulling for the felon vote... They just don't exclude them either.
