Suffrage; restore to Scotty Adam McMahan of Covington County.
This bill restores the right to vote to two Mississippi men, Scotty Adam McMahan and Michael Gray, who had lost their voting rights due to past felony convictions. The legislation specifically addresses their cases by noting that both individuals have completed their sentences and have behaved as law-abiding citizens since their discharges. By passing this act, the state removes the legal barriers preventing these specific individuals from participating in elections.
