All big problems can be solved in Kindergarten, or should I say some are lost in Kindergarten. Lost and not recoverable so

Reincarnated people look at solutions over generations as they can come back and admire their work.

Restoring voting rights to 100,000 felons. I'm a root cause DNA string kinda of guy and part comedian.

Communist Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear will be reinstating voting right to the deceased victims.

then bring back the death penalty for murders

Of course... Votes.

Sign of compassion or desperation? The democrats are disgustingly scraping the barrel in a desperate attempt to come up with enough votes to win in 2020.

Didn't this guy win by only 5,000 votes? All other big offices were won by conservatives with large margins? His faith is driving this? Hmmm.

It´s time to invest in DeepOnion. Just 35 cents, 25 million max supply and a lot of features. For sure, my best inversion of this year GetDeepOnion $ONION

Future Democratic voters as well as illegal immigrants who may subsequently be granted citizenship by Dems in the future.

If it beats mitch. Hes a real problem. Get rid of these yes men. Gutless traitors. Comrade. Forrest Trump

Depends on the felony to me

Only way criminal politicians win cheat

Only if they'll take advantage of it.. 🙏🏾

Why? They’re criminals who shouldn’t have the right to vote!

Anything for votes

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Good. Every American should have the right to vote

CompoundBoss Ok, let them out. Forgiveness is an absolute. No, Daniel, they still need to be held responsible, and pay their debt to society. Ok, well, how convenient to 'forgive' just enough to vote again, but not to be released.

That's the Toxic Stench of Religion when mixed with Government that you smell.

YES👏

Citizens he able to vote. Once you've served your sentence, all privileges and rights of citizenship should automatically be restored.

Hey remember when Florida asked the voters if they should restore voting rights for felons and they overwhelmingly said yes and republicans disregarded the will of the voters and still put up roadblocks to keep them from voting. Republicans can only when they suppress votes.

I guarantee Mitch would quickly vote on any legislation that would stop this from happening.🙄

JaneHayes31527 Pure evil

CompoundBoss Buying the election

Kentucky has a chance to change the course of the US in November 2020 and remove MoscowMitch from office.

Nothing to do with forgiveness..he believes they will vote for them.

👏👏👏👏👏 Bravo

Bye senatemajldr!!!!

Great. Just in time for them to show their appreciation to the Republicans for their great strides in prison reform.

Why not. We let Republicans vote and in some cases as many times as they want

Voting is no longer a privilege in some states. They just want the votes. Legal or not. Go Democrats you are digging a deeper pit for your party. All credibility has left the party.

Lacking votes for your party, Governor

Bravo.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

GOOD! Next vote out THAT TURTLE MCCONNELL

Well, MoscowMitch isn’t going to be happy I on the other hand have a huge smile on my face
