      Fair point, but I think that only applies to felonies (you can generally vote if it’s just a misdemeanor), and most states restore voting rights as soon as they’re released.

      Do other countries allow currently incarcerated people with felonies to vote?

        Yea , that is more a 3rd world country way. Most countries do not remove basic rights besides you freedom when jailing them. Can’t think of any examples actually.
