Most States automatically restore voting rights to ex-felons who complete sentences. However under Virginia's constitution, felons are permanently banned unless Governor restore voting rights.
According to Washington post poll, majority of Virginians approve of restoring voting rights. About 45% of ex-felons are black and 90% of blacks voted Democrat in past elections.
A person's rights? I don't think that anyone contests the reinstatement of the vote for an example as outlined in the article.....young man commits a robbery, does his time, reforms into a minister and stays clean for 20+ years....not too many people will say that he should be denied the vote.
BUT, as always, this type of thing sets a precedent. Eventually, with the coming liberal supreme court, the argument will devolve into why can't all people vote, incarcerated or not? Just watch and see.....
Remember, McAuliffe originally asked for 200,000 felons to be reinstated. IF he had his way, everyone would be on the roles, reformed, incarcerated, or whatever. Also, you bet your asss Hillary ordered this to be done....and more importantly, which counties and districts to heavily reinstate.
Hillary supporters baffle me. 
You can make book on the following events coming to fruition if she is elected:
1) Within 2 years the US will have boots on the ground in Syria and South Ossetia, setting up a virtual standoff with Russia.
2) Obamacare will be expanded during the first term, and it will be costly to privately insure. The impact on small business will be devastating.
3) Unprecedented gun control will be attempted by way of Executive order.
4) The US will begin exporting crude oil internationally on a large scale in an attempt to stimulate the economy, and fill the void on global markets that a Russian shutdown is likely to create.
5) The only good thing that is likely to come from Hillary in the Whitehouse is wide scale student loan forgiveness. But, as always, the hike in taxes will make up for any debt relief that the middle class receives.
The bottom line is that Hillary wants her place in the history books....she wants legacy. She is an ideologue. That is dangerous.
1) Consider the origin of the polls
2) Realize that the republican party hates Trump as much as the Democrats. The tension in the party is not all on Trump....
3) An election of Trump represents a condemnation of the entire political system in the US. A lot of powerful people on both sides stand to lose their place at the table if he is elected. That makes him the target of both sides.
4) As for firing campaign managers, who really cares? That is what he does...fire people. How many people on Obama's cabinet have filed resignations?
5) Admittedly, I do not know what "shambolic" means.
At the end of the day, we haven't even started yet. Personally, I don't mind what Trump is doing right now at all......bide time. Unload heavy starting in the first week of September.

Exactly. 
Thirdperson's point is delivered in a calm, rational manner. And it is completely misleading. Reminds me of watching MSNBC.
This election year is wearing me down...so many flawed arguments, so much BS, so much noise.
One thing is for sure....every media outlet in the United States has it in for Trump. I don't think we have ever seen a guy that is the butt of more jokes, the object of more ridicule, and is repeatedly dubbed "stupid." (Possibly George W Bush, but that was more a function of the media clearing its conscience after initially supporting the Iraq war in post 9-11 America)
Unequivocally, the media narrative is as follows......the sun rises in the east, the sky is blue, and Trump is stupid. If being "stupid" can get you a private jet, high rise penthouses, and a family that will go on national TV to praise your wares, who needs to be "smart"?
The bottom line of the general sour attitude towards Trump is that the talking heads and "journalists" still have to go to work and take orders...Trump doesn't.
