Yeah - that' s just who you want in charge of a nuclear arsenal.....
Someone who can' t quite remember who is still alive.......
Ever forget where you put your car keys? Your wallet? Do you remember what you had for supper 23 days ago? Ever blanked on someone’s name?
If you answered ‘yes’ to any of those, your right to vote should be rescinded. Why should someone with a faulty memory have a voice in governing the State?

I can see how local voting rights might be a problem - a town with a local prison could literally be run by the inmates. Basically being in prison doesn't make you a "resident" of the town.
Stripping voting rights from inmates is done largely for racist reasons, as are the laws that target racial groups. We don't allow intelligence tests, mental stability tests, or any other for voting. Doing one bad thing in your life doesn't make you a non-person. Voting rights are the most important way to preserve all other rights - including human rights.
I can answer this.
A person who's not been willing to uphold their responsibilities in regard to the social contract shouldn't be given a voice in molding it.
Like non-violent black drug offenders and innocent people in jail that took a plea deal because their lawyer recommended they do so? You give the system the power to take away people's votes, and they're going to use it to take away the votes of non-violent black offenders, while blacks are way over-represented in the prison population. Like Bernie Sanders and Happy Skeptic pointed out, this is a way to squash the black vote and it's racist.

Boru I will point out that the person in question had only died recently and I imagine at Joe's age keeping track of who is still around must be a task.

Boru Forgetting someone you know well enough to call by first name who DIED is a bit more evidentiary of a problem than losing your car keys...
Maybe just not to you.....

What does you being born and raised in the US have to do with anything? Do you have a problem with immigrants who weren't born there? If not, why did you bring up that you were born there? Odd.
