Vote rights for ex-offenders argued in New Jersey
The Star Ledger argues that probationers and parolees in 18 states can vote, while New Jersey bars them. About 76,000 adults remain disenfranchised, more than the votes in several counties or midsize cities, as a bill to restore rights stalls in the Legislature. The piece urges court action if lawmakers fail to act, advocating reintegration and democratic participation for those under supervision.
