The United States has 5.3 million former felons who cannot vote -- more than any other country in the world. When released from prison many felons never regain their voting rights. In Virginia former felons are barred from voting for life unless the governor restores their rights. Is it fair? American News Project talked to a southern Virginia resident who wishes he could vote in this year’s election.
