Voting in Texas with a Conviction

Once someone has "fully discharged" their sentence or has been pardoned, their right to vote is automatically restored in Texas. However, it is not always clear as to when a sentence has been fully completed. See the resources below for more information on voting in Texas with a felony conviction. 

Check out this video to know more about expunction, non-disclosure and restoring your voting rights.

Please visit the Texas Center for Justice and Equity for more resources.
