Certain states are likely to remain relatively worse places for minorities, particularly blacks, to live. But the system is bent in this manner everywhere, including California. The diffference, of course, is that in Florida the voting populace has collectively decided that they like the way things currently work. Whereas in places like California, the voting populace is deciding for a lot of reasons that they don't like the current situation.

Even the most backwards parts of the Deep South are just trailing, but they're on the same path. They'll catch up eventually.

There was a time when lynch mobs were normal in the South.

I never understood the mindset of "oh, this person committed a crime, let's disallow them from voting in the future".

My opinion is, if society has decided that an individual does not get to exercise their right to vote, then they also should have no tax liability. No taxation without representation, and all that jazz. I guarantee you if they were forced to make the choice between the two, they'd immediately reinstate every felon's voting rights.

They can move to Kansas where they could vote Republican.

Just saying...

Maybe don’t commit felonies?

It’s harder than it sounds!
