Voting Restoration Amendment
Say YES to Second Chances in November
Amendment 4, on the ballot this November, would return the ability to vote to people with prior felony convictions who have fully completed their entire sentences, including any probation, parole and restitution. Amendment 4 specifically excludes those people who have committed murder or a sexual offense.
BALLOT TITLE: Voting Restoration Amendment
BALLOT SUMMARY: This amendment restores the voting rights of Floridians with felony convictions after they complete all terms of their sentence including parole or probation. The amendment would not apply to those convicted of murder or sexual offenses, who would continue to be permanently barred from voting unless the Governor and Cabinet vote to restore their voting rights on a case by case basis.
