What options are there for the death penalty in the US?

AnswerLife in prison or the death penaltyAnswerThe 35 states that still have capital punishment were transitioning toward using lethal injection for most executions, when medical evidence indicated the drugs may not be working as expected, and may cause the prisoner to undergo conscious asphyxiation. At least one state (Nevada) has reverted to using the electric chair, and several others have declared a temporary moratorium on executions. A few states allow a choice between injection and one other method, such as the gas chamber, electrocution, hanging, or a firing squad, usually for offenders who were sentenced or committed their crimes before a certain date.Execution Methods by StateAlabama..................Choice of lethal injection or electrocutionArkansas.................Lethal injection (or choice of electrocution if convicted before 1983)Arizona...................Lethal injection (or choice of electrocution if convicted before November 1992)California................Choice of lethal injection or gas chamberColorado.................Lethal injectionConnecticut.............Lethal injectionDelaware................Lethal injection (or choice of hanging if convicted before June 13, 1986)Florida....................Choice of lethal injection or electrocutionGeorgia..................Lethal injectionIdaho.....................Lethal injection (or firing squad if injection is impractical)Illinois....................Lethal injectionIndiana..................Lethal injectionKansas...................Lethal injectionKentucky................Lethal injection (or choice of electrocution if sentenced before March 31, 1998)Louisiana................Lethal injectionMaryland................Lethal injection (or choice of gas chamber if sentenced before March 25, 1994)Missouri.................Choice of lethal injection or gas chamberMississippi..............Lethal injectionMontana.................Lethal injectionNorth Carolina.........Lethal injectionNebraska................Lethal injectionNew Hampshire.......Lethal injection (or hanging if injection is impractical)Nevada..................Lethal injectionOhio......................Lethal injectionOklahoma..............Lethal injection (or electrocution or firing squad if injection is declared unconstitutional)Oregon..................Lethal injectionPennsylvania..........Lethal injectionSouth Carolina........Choice of lethal injection or electrocutionSouth Dakota.........Lethal injectionTennessee..............Lethal injection (or choice of electrocution for offenses before December 31, 1998)Texas....................Lethal injectionUtah.....................Lethal injection (or firing squad if injection is declared unconstitutional)Virginia.................Choice of lethal injection or electrocutionWashington...........Choice of lethal injection or hangingWyoming...............Lethal injection (or gas chamber if injection is declared unconstitutional)Federal.................Method of state where sentence was imposedMilitary.................Lethal injectionAnswerOklahoma was the first jurisdiction to authorize lethal injection May 1977.
