The Supreme Court declined to allow some Florida felons the ability to vote if they have not paid fees, restitution, and other fines pertaining to their cases according to state requirements.

The high court ruled in a 6-3 decision on Thursday to reject a request to lift an appeals court order that prevents Florida felons from voting in the state’s upcoming primary elections without first paying court fees and restitution.
