Louisiana House Defeats Bill to Let Ex-Felons Register After they are Released from Incarceration

On May 4, the Louisiana House defeated HB 598. It would have allowed ex-felons to register to vote when they are released from prison. Current law says they can’t register to vote until they are not only out of prison, but off parole or probation. See this story. The story says Louisiana has a greater percentage of its population incarcerated than any other state. Thanks to Electionline for the link.

  1. Living in the LA swamp causes a higher percentage of felons ???

    Should many of the smaller States NOT exist ???

    — i.e. in such States all sort of above average major faction / suppression stuff happens.

  2. Demo Rep- I think I liked you better when you were on hiatus.
