Could felons decide the election?

Advocates pushing to restore the voting rights of felons recently celebrated the Nebraska Supreme Court ruling that people who have completed their criminal sentences can vote, saying the decision meant that thousands more will be able to participate in the 2024 election.

Since the 2020 election, there have also been at least a dozen other laws or court decisions that have largely led to helping more felons be able to vote, particularly when they leave prison.
