Quick Glance: Court Overturns Lifetime Voting Ban for Former Felons in Mississippi
- A court decision ruled that barring people who committed certain crimes pointlessly denied them access to the democratic core of American citizenship.
- The ruling affects around 30,000 Mississippi residents who completed prison sentences for 22 crimes falling under the state constitution's disenfranchisement clause.
- The decision could impact 14 other states with lifetime voting bans for some crimes.
- Plaintiffs argued that a lifetime ban had no connection to the crime and did not deter future crimes. The court agreed, stating that Mississippi had no justifiable explanation for disenfranchising certain crimes.
