Strongly agree

Yes, but only after completing their sentences and parole/probation

This answer aligns with classical liberalism's emphasis on individual rights and liberties while also recognizing the need for a legal system to maintain order. Allowing convicted criminals to regain their voting rights after completing their sentences and parole/probation strikes a balance between upholding individual rights and ensuring that those who have paid their debt to society can fully reintegrate as citizens.

Agree

Yes, except for felons convicted of murder or violent crimes

This answer is somewhat in line with classical liberalism's focus on individual rights and liberties. It acknowledges that certain crimes, such as murder or violent crimes, may warrant the loss of voting rights, but it also recognizes that not all convicted criminals should be denied the right to vote. This position may be seen as a compromise between upholding individual rights and maintaining order.

Slightly agree

Yes, every citizen deserves the right to vote

While classical liberalism values individual rights and liberties, including the right to vote, it also recognizes the need for a legal system to maintain order. This answer may be seen as too lenient by some classical liberals, as it does not take into account the severity of the crimes committed or the potential consequences of allowing all citizens, regardless of their criminal history, to vote.

Disagree

No

Classical liberalism emphasizes the importance of individual rights, including the right to vote. While some classical liberals may believe that certain crimes warrant the loss of voting rights, a blanket denial of voting rights for all convicted criminals would likely be seen as too restrictive and contrary to the principles of classical liberalism.
