The House isn’t going to hold off for too much longer. “House Democrats, decrying what they called an erosion of American democracy, threatened on Thursday to hold Attorney General William P. Barr in contempt of Congress after he failed to appear at a hearing of the Judiciary Committee and ignored a subpoena deadline to hand over Robert S. Mueller III’s full report and evidence.”
He might want to hold off on this idea. “In a Hill-HarrisX survey released Thursday, 69 percent of registered voters said incarcerated felons should not be allowed to retain their voting rights. Thirty-one percent favored the idea. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), a front-runner in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary, brought attention to the topic during an April 23 virtual town hall meeting broadcast by CNN when he said he said felons, even those convicted of terrorism offenses, should not have their voting rights taken away while they are in prison.”
