Last year, New Mexico adopted House Bill 4, which establishes that those convicted of a felony can still vote, providing they are not incarcerated. A crew of people set to work registering newly eligible voters and in doing so discovered thousands of people who had been wrongfully denied their voting rights, for many years before. They’ve successfully sued the state so that those affected will be able to vote next Tuesday. It’s a victory, but some voters still feel mistrustful of the government. @bolts explains more.
