Warren supports restoration of voting rights for felons after they have completed their sentence. She does not support restoring voting rights to individuals while they are still incarcerated, but expresses a willingness to reconsider this position.
“Once someone pays their debt to society, they’re out there expected to pay taxes, expected to abide by the law, they’re expected to support themselves and their families,” she said. “I think that means they’ve got a right to vote.” “While they’re incarcerated, I think that’s something we can have more conversation about.”
