Yes...but where is the urgent problem? >> Voting is a right, not a privilege.

Qualifications for voting are mostly the province of the States actually, not Congress. Hence why rules for restoration of voting rights for felons differs state by state. None the less, while Congress and state legislatures can try and fuck with it, the bar needs to be very very high because it's a constitutional right. So, once again, what y'all think is "reasonable" or "prudent" matters not one whit. It's a right, not a privilege. Stop trying to fuck with it without dire need.
