Can G. Gordon Liddy vote? What about Oliver North?
These RWers were convicted of crimes yet you still see them talking poltics on TV and radio.
If 14% of black men in Atlanta cant vote due to convictions, does the same apply to white RW offenders?

1. North was convicted...but the conviction was overturned on a technicality.
Liddy should not be able to vote.

2. He should not but I'm wondering if he still ia allowed to.
We all know that the rules are different for white RWers.

3. Also, wasn't
Ollie pardoned by Bush 1? So he definitely can vote. I have no idea about Liddy though.

4. I believe Liddy lives in VA
If so, as a felon, he's not allowed to vote without some enormously lengthy process which goes thru the Gov's office (maybe presidential pardon trumps that though, if he got one).
