GAR#419 already solves the problems of the discrimination given to those who had previously served a criminal sentence and allows democratic states flexibility and leeway in at least revamping its justice system with its democratic processes to conditions that suit it while at least generally increasing democratic freedoms.
This draft would also have little teeth, as it only enforces its provisions to nations which already had a working democratic system, as stated in Clause b, meaning that the burdens it gives to democratic nations and making the process of instituting a democratic system restrictive would actually give an incentive for nations with a nascent democracy to stop in the process of instituting democracy entirely. The rights and conditions of prisoners in non-democratic countries are also ignored.
Feyrisshire wrote:There should be a blocker at least to ensure that voting for prisoners and those being punished for a crime only takes place when human rights conditions and living conditions for those prisoners are ensured to be decent and well, to prevent the chance of electoral duress. Otherwise, how can we ensure that prisoners living under prison slavery conditions are not voting under conditions of intimidation and duress?
Feyrisshire wrote:Also normally we would agitate for more democratic rights for prisoners, such as the right to organize, right to association and participate in rallies and more democratic freedoms overall, making the fact that the right is only extended on "voting in an election in a public office" to be unduly and narrowly arbitrary."

OOC: But then, to not discriminate against people, they'd have to do that in every location where someone might be, unable to attend. Discrimination bites both ways.

Are you merely opposed to those that committed treason be allowed to vote or are you opposed to everyone with a criminal record being able to vote?
