In the US what disqualifies you from voting legally?

In many states, a felony conviction for anything removes your voting rights. A conviction on most felony offenses will cause you to have your voting rights removed or curtailed. I believe that there are at least 2 states that allow felons in prison to vote but the remainder do not. Some states have provisions in their law to allow a convicted felon (once they have served their time) to have their record altered (expunged) and they can once again regain their rights, but not all. you will have to research your own states law on this matter.

What level of government has primary policy-making responsibility for deciding whether convicted felons can vote in presidential elections?

The primary policy-making responsibility for determining whether convicted felons can vote in presidential elections lies with the individual states. Each state has the authority to set its own rules regarding the voting rights of convicted felons, including whether to restore their voting rights after serving their sentence or to maintain permanent disenfranchisement. However, the federal government can pass legislation that sets minimum standards or addresses specific aspects of felon voting rights.
