Once upon a time, a governor elected by the people for the people decided that anyone who had ever committed a felony — like murder and rape and, maybe, threatening to kill the president of the United States — should be treated just like a law-abiding citizen. With the stroke of a pen, he restored the voting rights to thousands and thousands of ex-felons.
That governor was Terry McAuliffe, a longtime fundraiser for Bill and Hillary Clinton and the chief executive of the commonwealth of Virginia. He is, of course, a Democrat.
