Restores voting rights for individuals convicted of a felony upon release from incarceration.
West Virginia SB112 amends the state's voting rights laws to automatically restore the eligibility to register to vote for individuals who have been incarcerated for a felony conviction upon their release. This applies regardless of whether the person is on probation, parole, or supervised release. The bill ensures that formerly incarcerated individuals regain their voting rights immediately upon release, aligning with the state's constitutional qualifications for voting.
