People make mistakes and in this day and age, one slip of the law (non-violent) can catch a Felony. Needs to be case by case restoration.

In Florida, the governor can restore voting rights, so it's a case by case evaluation. About 400 former felons per year have had their voting rights restored under Rick Scott.
