My opinion of Gov. Terry McAuliffe just went up about %300

Yes, the ruling sucks, but there is still a way to restore these ex-felons voting rights, cumbersome as it may be.

I hope McAuliffe doesn't get carpal-tunnel syndrome with all the signing he's going to do.

“The men and women whose voting rights were restored by my executive action should not be alarmed. I will expeditiously sign nearly 13,000 individual orders to restore the fundamental rights of the citizens who have had their rights restored and registered to vote. And I will continue to sign orders until I have completed restoration for all 200,000 Virginians. My faith remains strong in all of our citizens to choose their leaders, and I am prepared to back up that faith with my executive pen. The struggle for civil rights has always been a long and difficult one, but the fight goes on.” - See more at: https://governor.virginia.gov/newsroom/newsarticle?articleId=16047#sthash.87uY1y8U.Cud78vLE.dpuf
