    I guess you haven't heard of probation or parole?

    What about it? The executive order under discussion doesn't touch that prohibition. It reinstates suffrage to those whose sentence is completed. That means not until any relevant probation or parole are also completed, as those are inclusive in any sentence. The article literally spelled that out for you.
    Last night as I lay in bed, looking up at the stars, I thought, “Where the hell is my ceiling?"

    I assumed RB was thinking of people who were no longer on probation or parole. The order doesn't reinstate voting rights for felons on parole.

    Yes I have and that is complete under this situation, though even then if someone is to be trusted on release with probation then I'd be OK with them voting, but certainly once the probation is over and time has been served.
