Original Note:
The Constitution does not explicitly prohibit felons who are US citizens from voting. The 1974 SCOTUS case Richardson v Ramirez ruled that Section 2 of the 14th Amendment allows each state to decide on voting rights for felons. https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/fourteenth_amendment_0 https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/418/24/ https://content.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1553510,00.html
