Mississippi HB451 would restore voting rights to individuals convicted of disenfranchising crimes once they have completed their sentencing.
Mississippi HB451 amends the Mississippi Code to restore voting rights to individuals convicted of disenfranchising crimes once they have satisfied all sentencing requirements. The bill specifies that a person convicted of vote fraud, any crime listed in Section 241 of the Mississippi Constitution of 1890, or any crime interpreted as disenfranchising in later Attorney General opinions, will have their right to vote suspended upon conviction but automatically restored once they have completed all sentencing requirements.
