Should convicted criminals have the right to vote?

Yes, but only then if they are not convicted for a serious crime like murder, rape, terrorism etc. Also, only after completion of sentence.

If if someone has done a mild crime by mistake like for temporal pleasure someone steals from someone and the government is rehabilitating the person for his mistake and he is also guilty for what he did. For others doing violent crimes no voting rights to them at all.

Only select few individuals should have right to influence the decision about who should be the ruler. Democracy and other forms of electoracy are not the ideal form of Government.

only if arrested for political reasons

Yes. But if they are convicted in a serious crimes like rape and murder then No.

Yes except felons convicted of murder or violent crimes and also they have to complete their punishment

After completing their sentence and subject to good behavior.

People's court shall decide that!

Depends on the type of crime and also for other criminals,it should be allowed only after completion of their sentences.

Yes, but felons convicted of murder or violent crimes should be excluded and the rest only after completing their sentences and parole/probation

As long as they are non-political criminals.

Pstal ballot should be allowed

Those committed crimes against sovereignty, integrity and security of state should not be allowed to vote.

Only if they've completed their parole/probation and are mentally competent to do so

As Long as the Crime isn't severe,Ok

Till they have served out their sentence, their right to vote should be suspended. It should be restored once they have completed serving their sentence.

No. This would only increase political advantage in support of the parties.

Depending of the crime

After their rehabilitation they can go with right to vote

Depends on what crime the person has committed. If someone has committed crime that relate to election, voting, treason, amongst other political issues then absolutely not, yes if they have committed petty crimes or have served their sentence then I don’t see a problem with them casting a vote.

After completing their sentence and barring those who've committed violent crimes, yes.

Yes, if they aren't convicted with sexual assault or murder, and have completed phyclogical tests and a have completed parole

Yes, except for felons convicted of murder, terrorism, rape, voter fraud or corruption.

very tough to decide

After vetting their connections

It depends on crime they had done, if it is minor in which human life or disgusting thing is not done then they have right to vote. But it is depends on many things.

Depends on Charge if Charged for protest ok but for serious IPC crime NO.

Every citizen deserve to vote, but if someone who is convicted for heinous crimes like - murder, rape, terrorism, corruption ,etc. or someone who habitual offender should not have any voting rights

If someone has served their time, do you believe they should regain their full rights as a citizen, including voting?

This question should read: Should convicted criminals have the right to vote for unconvicted criminals?

If the judge can see they have changed

yes and no it depends

Yes, only temporarily while their citizenship is barred after being convicted of "crimes involving moral turpitude"

Yes, after they have served their time or been granted parole.

Only those with minor crimes. Those who have committed felonies should have a waiting period after serving their sentence. Murderers and other terrible criminals should not be allowed to vote.

Yes, before they are sent to prison and after they are released

I feel like it really only depends on the type of crime the felon commited and how severe it affected someone of something

Everyone deserves grace, even after all the wrong they have done.

I think that it depends on what their crime is

I think it depends on what the crime is.

If the crime is minor they should be able to vote but if its anything about middle class crimes they shouldn’t vote

As long as they get mental support.

As long as the sentence and restitution is satisfied and there must be a minimum of 10 years without any further arrests

Yes, if they are mentally alright and have taken an accurate psychological test that proves they understand what they are doing and how serious it is.

This one is tricky because yeah if you are a citizen of the U.S you should be able to vote but if you are just plain evil and done or do disgusting things we should highly consider if they should be able to or not we should leave it up to the people to decide.

Yes, except for felons convicted of rape, manslaughter or murder

You gave up the right to vote when you got locked up. How much sense does it make when women had to wait til 1919 to be able to vote, but a criminal can vote? NO!

As long as the criminal as manners or responsibility to act normal as a citizen should. they should be mature to be able to do these things.

Yes, but only after completing their sentences and parole/probation but not for mentally ill

Depends on the crime, I believe pedophiles, murderers, rapists, and people with genuine bad intentions shouldn't, but someone in for a petty charge should have the right.

Yes except for the people who are crazy and have actually murdered people. Some people are falsely convicted.

Yes, every adult deserves the right to vote

Yes, except for felons who are sentenced to life in prison without parole

Yes, every citizen deserves the right to vote, except for felons who are sentenced to life in prison without parole and have No regret for their Crime

Yes, every citizen deserves the right to vote, except for Felons who are serving Life in Prison with no chance of parole for convicting things like murder or any other violent crimes

No, criminals need to be punished for their crimes

If there is great evidence against a case of murder or violent crime that proves the arrested person did not do it but are still convicted, then they should be able to vote.

I believe this question needs more detail before I can answer this

Not violent offenders. Lesser non violent felons after finishing sentences and parole

Yes but there needs to be a universal system for the restoration of the right to vote and a civics test, and criteria for not restoring those rights.

Yes, except for felons convicted of manslaughter, murder or rape

No abolish democracy

Yes, unless they have committed felonies

Yes, as long as they are mentally fit to vote.

Only if they committed misdemeanors, felons should not have the right to vote

Yes, unless they have committed a felony

Yes, unless they have been convicted of voter fraud like crime. This is extremely rare.

Yes, but not people convicted of voter disenfranchisement or tampering with machines and the voting process.

How would it make you feel to lose your right to vote because of a past mistake, even after you’ve served your punishment?

yes everyone who pays taxes should have the right to vote. however if a person is proven to be mentally ill or unstable they should not be able to vote

I think they should have the right to vote if they decide to get a good job and doing things to turn their life around.

Yes, unless you committed a major crime like murder or rape

Yes, and, depending on the crime, after the sentence/parole/probation is completed.

Yes, except for felons convicted of murder, manslaughter or non-marital rape.

Yes, except for felons convicted of murder, manslaughter or non-marital rape

Yes, except for felons convicted of murder, non-marital rape or manslaughter

Yes , for the criminals who have been released they should be drug and mentally tested to see if they would be able to vote smartly and they should at least be able to vote.

Yes, but not if they have been convicted of a severe violence crime/sexual crimes. That and if they finish parole/probation
