Nebraska Supreme Court Restores Voting Rights to 7,000 Felons Ahead of Nov. 5 Election
Oct 16, 2024, 03:05 PM
The Nebraska Supreme Court has ruled that individuals convicted of felony crimes can register to vote once they have completed their sentences. This decision mandates the Secretary of State to implement the new state legislation immediately, which could potentially restore voting rights to over 7,000 people. The ruling reverses a previous order from the Republican Secretary of State and has significant implications for the upcoming November 5 election. The court's decision addresses unlawful disenfranchisement by the Nebraska executive branch and aims to ensure that thousands of citizens can participate in the democratic process. It is noted that the dissent delayed the release of the ruling.
