Do you support the state right to take away the right to vote even after they have paid your debt to society?

Now, this probably will not reduce your whining and complaining, but:
Texas Election Code
Sec. 11.002. QUALIFIED VOTER. (a) In this code, "qualified voter" means a person who:
…
(4) has not been finally convicted of a felony or, if so convicted, has:
(A) fully discharged the person's sentence, including any term of incarceration, parole, or supervision, or completed a period of probation ordered by any court; or
(B) been pardoned or otherwise released from the resulting disability to vote;
….
(b) For purposes of Subsection (a)(4), a person is not considered to have been finally convicted of an offense for which the criminal proceedings are deferred without an adjudication of guilt.
I'm not sure when someone who rapes and murders a 2-year-old baby has "paid their debt to society," but assuming they don't get the death penalty on their way out of prison ... they will be qualifed to vote in Texas.
After a successful death penalty, although they still will not have "paid their debt to society" (my opinion of course, not yours), whether they are a "qualified voter" is somewhat moot ... unless their "residency" was in South Texas during the 60's and 70's .. in which case they were able to cast their votes, apparently, and as recently discovered in Florida, much to the dismay of Democrats who objected to them being removed from the "qualified voter" rolls ... (Exas is doing that also, you kow).....
.. the way the polls are going Obaminable is gonna need all the votes he can get! Fortunately those folks in Texas understand bad when they see it.
If you were going to whine and complain about "voters' rights" it seems a more current and disgusting practice to get your attention might be the FAILURE of the CIC (that would be Obaminable) to ASSURE that ALL military personnel on duty protecting YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE timely recieve a ballot so they can voice their desire for their next CIC!!!!! Would it be a consideration that more than likely the large majority of military personnel would cast a vote for the current CIC's opponent (whoever that might be .. they don't care) rather than the CIC, which is why the ballots are not getting their in a timely fashion because it is the responsibility of the DOD under the supervision of the CIC to get them the ballots and redeliver them to the appropriate State from which they came! Not that would be a mission for you, as opposed to whining and complaining about some baby rapist and murderer not being able to vote .... even though they can!
But, of course, rich, intelligencia have their own special agendas.
Now back to the 15-year-olds whose 18-year-old plus boyfriends convince them to have sterilization so they can have "safe" sex without the necessity of birth control and then dump them after the BF finds newer stuff!
