Daily Kos - This November, 4.4 million people in the U.S. will be denied the right to vote because they have a felony conviction on their record. Hundreds of thousands more are eligible to vote but can’t because they are being held in jail pretrial.And because of racial bias in arrests, prosecution, and convictions, Black people of voting age are 3.5x more likely to be disenfranchised compared to other voters.
