The rationale for this actually makes some sense. You wouldn’t want an incumbent to be able to remove an opponent by railroading them into a minor felony conviction. With the way Trump ran things, if all it took was a minor felony to make sure Biden was ineligible, he absolutely would have pressured the DOJ to find something.
How does that make sense if you’re not allowed to participate in the voting process as a felon? Or do you also think that felons should be eligible to vote?
I can’t think of any good reason anyone’s right to vote should be revoked. In fact, it’s probably very important that those that have been targeted by the system are able to have their voice.
He can still become president with a criminal conviction. He just can’t vote in the election. Isn’t our system swell?

I agree. It simply makes no sense that felons don’t get a say in the nation, but can somehow run it.
This is what Putin conveniently does for any opposition.
And America does to voters instead.
What system is better bro? I mean, what country the size of the United States is doing it the “right way?” India? China?
That is a false equivalence
