In a democracy, I don’t see how their vote really matters less. Plus it’ll help improve prisons perhaps.

    It’s a seriously bad idea to remove imprisoned people’s rights even though point of prison is to remove rights to freedom of movement.

    Why it’s bad is because if you remove voting or communication rights then it opens the door to removing those rights with laws targeted at a minority. If a certain minority votes against you you can find a behavior in than group and make it illegal.

    Black people in the US were especially targeted with this because of the War on Drugs as an example.
