I don't normally work with crooks. I don't know. Over the years, I've worked in the area of civil practice and haven't a clue as to what the law might be with regard to lousy stinking admitted felons who claim they were wrongfully convicted. It strikes me that they should be able to vote --- for president of the CCO.
Felons should be able to be elected for office as candidates of the Democratic party, of course. Likely they should be available for the Republican party too. It strikes me that a snake could be elected as a Republican. Look at Dick Cheney.
Even dead men can be elected, I suppose. Why not felons if they're popular enough?
As for whether Felon Foulks is in violation of any restriction, I would offer no opinion for want of knowledge. Likely he is not restricted from holding public office. Knowing how dead people vote in Illinois on a regular basis, I expect he can pull a lever several times in every election.
I tend to vote a straight Democrat ticket, so it doesn't bother me that Foulks is a Democrat too. I can always pull up one lever.
Re: The truth about my wrongful conviction and how it affects my right to vote.
None of this was asked for Mike. All I wondered about was a felons right to vote. 48 states restrict the felons right to vote in different ways. It will be interesting to see if someone knows the laws of this state. I for one am going to investigate. This is nothing to do personally with anyone that uses this list. This is about the rights of convicted felons.
