Letting Felons Vote

To ensure they win future elections, the left wants to allow children to vote and also allow convicted felons to vote.

Does that include felons convicted of hate crimes?
Sen. Bernie Sanders's (I., Vt.) support for extending voting rights to violent felons such as Dylann Roof, the racist gunman who murdered nine people at a black church in South Carolina, could prove problematic as the Democratic presidential candidates set their sights on the Palmetto State primary on February 29.

Roof, who recently filed an appeal challenging his conviction and death sentence, is a widely despised individual.
Good. He should be.
So is Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the Boston Marathon bomber who killed 3 and injured nearly 300 others in 2013. Like Roof, he is on death row. Sanders would not only spare their lives by abolishing the death penalty but would also grant them voting rights in prison.
What about rapists? What about gay bashers?

I'd ask if lefties ever thought through their proposals, but that would imply that they think.
