I don't think the dui was a felony so he probably didn't lose his voting rights.

Its more a Snarky comeback than anything.
I would have said, you are being silly and putting the cart before the horse. Why not wait until hes convicted, serves his time, pays his debt to society and gets out of prison at the ripe old age of 110 years old. Then, sure, let him vote. After hes paid his debt.
Sometimes a zinger is better.

It means Gaetz should be circumspect in his comments, particularly in this weasel smear of Andrew Gillum.

(976 posts)5. typical politician's distortion of facts. Gillum supports restoring ex-convicts voting rights, but
it's not up to him. That right will be restored when 60% of Florida voters approve Amendment 4 to the state constitution.
