SB 3229 Mississippi Senate · 2024 Regular Session

Suffrage; restore to Stanley Barnes.

This bill seeks to restore the right to vote to Stanley Barnes, a resident of Claiborne County who was previously disqualified from voting due to a 1990 murder conviction. The legislation notes that Barnes has been on unsupervised parole since 2000 and has since behaved as a law-abiding citizen. If passed, the act would officially reinstate his eligibility to cast ballots in elections. The bill did not advance beyond the committee stage and is not currently active.
