Suffrage laws vary from state to state, but generally only felons lose their right to vote. Some states restore suffrage upon completion of a sentence while others impose a lifetime ban. Two states -- Maine and Vermont -- actually allow people to vote in prison. Additionally, non-citizens are not allowed to vote.
