The ability of individuals who have been in prison to vote varies by jurisdiction. In some places, individuals retain their voting rights even while incarcerated, while in others, they may lose their voting rights during their prison sentence and potentially face additional restrictions after release. Many states have made efforts to restore voting rights to felons, but the specific laws and processes differ widely across the country. It's important to check the local laws for the most accurate information.
