in the UK they dont - but under new EU rules (god bless em Smiley) thats set to change - which will lead to hilarious results in areas where the prison population actually outnumbers that areas constituents - expect candidates campaigning for bigger cells and shorter sentence any day now....

I believe that in the US the answer is no, that is, if you are in a state or federal prison for years. We are not talking about the county or city jail for 30 days or something. But a prison sentence deprives you of  the right to vote, if I am not mistaken.

And they can't vote for the rest of their life.

I think it's a FELONY that you have to commit to loose that right. Not a misdemeanor.

Only in some states.  Florida is the big one because that was a big piece of Bush winning in 2000, a law was passed literally a couple months before the election that felons couldn't vote, even if they were out of prison.  Total bullshit.

Heres a site with voting requirements per state.

I did a little research and could'nt find anything one way or another. Now I would assume that if the person meets all the requirements than they would be allowed to vote as they are givin new identities and I don't see there being a huge security factor in someone registering and actually voting under their new identity.? smoking
