HB 2755 Missouri House · 2024 Regular Session

Modifies requirements for voter qualifications following release from prison or jail

This bill modifies the rules for voter registration in Missouri to allow individuals who are at least 17 years and six months old to register and vote once they turn 18. It maintains existing restrictions that prevent people currently serving prison sentences from voting and bars those convicted of felonies or misdemeanors related to voting rights from registering. The legislation also clarifies that people on probation or parole after a felony conviction cannot vote until their supervision is fully completed. These changes aim to update the legal framework for suffrage eligibility without altering the core principle that incarcerated individuals cannot vote.
